beni wayes - monday in america lyrics

Loading...

[verse one]
the land of the free
was colonised by pirates
now there’s no equal footing anywhere
such a shame
and i’ve heard it’s nice
to wake up to sounds of violence
no silence seeps through the streets when a child has died

[chorus]
‘cause when it’s monday in america
the world stands still
no one gives a f+ck about the wars that were made
and the prices we paid
cos it’s monday across the sea

[verse two]
the people are sweet
til they get locked up for trying to be free
there’s no land of the free
what a waste of a name
and why should we care?
there’s combat flying everywhere
but then again the week has just begun

[chorus]
and it’s monday in america
so the world hits pause
people over there never care if a life was lost
why would they? they’ve got to go to work today
it’s hard to have too many options for your long career
[bridge]
as the eagle squawks a mother lost her child
how long do you plan to stay in denial?
put the youth in the front lines
and you wonder why you’re despised

[outro]
but it’s monday in america
hard to have monday in america
so the clock strikes 12
and the world stands still
