bob geldof the boomtown rats – banana republic lyrics
banana republic
septic isle
screaming in the suffering sea
sounds like crying
everywhere i go, yeah
everywhere i see
the black and blue uniforms
police and priests
and i wonder do you wonder
while you’re sleeping with your wh-r-
sharing beds with history
is like a licking running sores
forty shades of green, yeah
sixty shades of red
heroes going cheap these days
price, a bullet in the head
banana republic
septic isle
suffer in the screaming sea
sounds like dying
everywhere i go, yeah
everywhere i see
the black and blue uniforms
police and priests
take your hand and lead you
up a garden path
let me stand aside here
and watch you p-ss
striking up a soldier’s song
i know that tune
it begs too many questions
and answers too
banana republic
septic isle
suffer in the screaming sea
sounds like dying
everywhere i go, yeah
everywhere i see
the black and blue uniforms
police and priests
the purple and the pinstripe
they mutely shake their heads
a silence shrieking volumes
violence worse than the condemn
stab you in the back, yeah
laughing in your face
glad to see the place again
it’s a pity nothing’s changed
banana republic
septic isle
suffer in the screaming sea
sounds like dying
everywhere i go, yea
everywhere i see
the black and blue uniforms
police and priests
