excessive force - desperate state lyrics

Loading...

i’m just a chicago cab driver and i prefer the neighborhoods
’cause you seem to run into a more interesting crowd
of people in the neighborhoods but we got guys out here
so mesmerized by television and drugs and superficial things
(laugh)

they’re f-cked up a lot of kids just aren’t looking at the future
as really a bright point in their life when you have a bleak outlook
that would lend itself to alcohol and drug abuse
our country is self-destructing from within

some say russia is not dead at all, it’s gonna come back
who gives a f-ck about what’s happening
overseas at this point in time? i’m not worried about a russian soldier
walking down state street any time in the very near future

i am worried about my daughter or son
my girlfriend walking out getting hit over the head
for ten dollars in her purse
i am addressing the issue of guys going out there
sticking you and me up to get our money
so he can pay for his drug fix

desperate state, desperate state of affairs
where do you think america is going?
desperate state, desperate state of affairs
i worry about that

i mean, we’re, we’re such a materialistic society that uh
we’ve reached, uh, a level of diminishing returns
i think, now and n-body wins in a situation
like that there are no winners

the only people suffering, as usual
are the little guys, people don’t even smile
you know, you walk down the street
and you look at these couples

they don’t even embrace each other anymore
everyone’s living in a perpetual state of fear
something has to be done
our country is self-destructing from within
in two or three years it’s gonna be my b-tt

i’m just a chicago cab driver
i have a feeling that we elected some people
up there to represent our needs and aspirations
that don’t seem to be doing a d-mn good job

bush’s former head of the c.i.a., you know
a guy like him kinda puts the nail in the coffin
it’s like big brother’s trying to push his weight around
at least clinton came from somewhat meager means
he can relate to the common guy
he knows what we’re going through
(laugh)

desperate state, desperate state of affairs
where do you think america is going?
desperate state, desperate state of affairs
i worry about that

there is no perfect system
no such thing as a perfect system
but there certainly could be a more equitable system
where the average worker could make
a decent living and support his family

give them a good education, adequate health
and some, uh, hope for the future
there is no hope for the future
we’re not talking that far in the distance any longer
we have the technology at hand right now to self-destruct

got these people that elected these politicians
that appoints this guy that appoints this guy
and they’re all of the same narrow ideology
and they’re trying to promote, push their values onto you
it doesn’t seem to be too difficult
to see that that’s not gonna work
we’ll be at each other’s throats forever

i think that the rodney king beating
just brought it all out, no peace without justice
i have a feeling that we’re walking on thin ice in that area
there has to be a type of value system here
and we’re all gonna have to come up with a meeting
of the minds in the very near future, it’s up to you

desperate state, desperate state of affairs
where do you think america is going?
desperate state, desperate state of affairs
i worry about that
