You Can't Stop Progress Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yes, I’ll be a responsible member
Of this great and bless’d society
I’ve come to understand the wrongful nature
Of gun ownership in the age of monarchy
But sometimes it’s just so hard
To act like the person you weren’t born to be
[Pre-Chorus]
Felonious behavior. Countless misdemeanors
Impersonating an officer of the law, oh no!
[Chorus]
Bonafide man of action! How you like that?
Bonafide man of action! How you like that?
You can’t stop, you can’t stop progress
You can’t stop, you can’t stop, no, no, no
You can’t stop, you can’t stop progress
You can’t stop, you can’t stop, no, no, no
[Verse 2]
I understand there’s no victimless crimes
That being said I feel rather victimized
And I will seek substantial compensation
Whether legally, legal-ish, or otherwise
But sometimes it’s such a hassle
To sit patiently outside the open gates of a loaded castle
[Pre-Chorus]
Felonious behavior. Countless misdemeanors
Impersonating an officer of the law, oh no!
[Chorus]
Bonafide man of action! How you like that?
Bonafide man of action! How you like that?
You can’t stop, you can’t stop progress
You can’t stop, you can’t stop, no, no, no
You can’t stop, you can’t stop progress
You can’t stop, you can’t stop, no, no, no
White's Ferry Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Only the dirt I do believe
As memory vanishes among the leaves
[Chorus 1]
Wizard of tickets is always glad to charge a pilgrim’s fare
Jubilee’s generally early. Let’s take the country air
Mistreating granite, limestone, and clay. It’s a shameful soil
But all grows well on the floodplain tract if you can afford the toil
[Verse 2]
Cradled in ivy, we will allow
The moss to prosper upon our brows
[Chorus 3]
Boxer rebellion, the Holy Child. They all pay their rent
But none together can testify to the rhythm of a road well bent
Saddles and zip codes, passports and gates, the Jones’ keep
In August the water is trickling, in April it’s furious deep
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus 1]
Wizard of tickets is always glad to charge a pilgrim’s fare
Jubilee’s generally early. Let’s take the country air
Mistreating granite, limestone, and clay. It’s a shameful soil
But all grows well on the floodplain tract if you can afford the toil
[Verse 3]
Only the dirt I do believe
Divinity vanishes among the leaves
Child of the City Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Child of the city, Mother of the Earth
Baptism by firefly, pinch a parson’s purse
Queen of Cups the Joker’s blade is old and dull
Child of the City
Yet it slices us with the nicest miracles
[Verse 2]
Babe in the Wilderness, Father of Creation
Spinning of the wind, the gathering of nations
Professor on the Toadstool convene your class
Babe in the wilderness
[Chorus]
In absentia, please show your hands and your feet
Are you touched by a beast?
Wash yourself, live your life. Take the Earth as your wife
[Post-Chorus]
False idol raiser, play the town
Count up your blessings and melt it down
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Immortal Dominator. Governor of the World
Sic semper tyrannis. The Fisher and the Pearl
The bearer of this letter is a charlatan
Immortal Dominator
[Chorus]
In absentia, please show your hands and your feet
Are you touched by a beast?
Wash yourself, live your life. Take the Earth as your wife
[Post-Chorus]
False idol raiser, play the town
Count up your blessings and melt it down
All your money now, kid. All your money now, kid
All your money now, kid. All your money
When Vegans Attack Lyrics
[Verse 1]
How’s that hardcore fanzine? Still take the piss?
Y&T got records, demos on cassette
Summer of the seven inch. Too cool for school
Manifestoes at Kinko’s, pinko commies play no fools
[Pre-Chorus]
I feel the spirit moving over me
There are clouds beneath my feet
[Chorus 1]
When vegans attack on ten speed bikes
Tattoos with meaning, American Spirit Lights
[Verse 2]
It’s hard to smoke ‘em when you got to be runnin’
Congressional and D.C.P.D
Lafayette Park undercover
The saddest sight I’ve ever seen, ever seen
Tear gas electric! You know I can’t quit this riot
Strictly professional insurrectionist kid, and I can’t deny it
[Pre-Chorus]
I feel the spirit moving over me
There are clouds beneath my feet
[Chorus 2]
When vegans attack on ten speed bikes
Tattoos with meaning, American Spirit Lights
Freshmen in fatigues. You know he’s fighting for his right
Copious note taker. American Spirit Lights
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
I feel the spirit moving over me
I feel the spirit moving over me
There are clouds beneath my feet
[Chorus 2]
When vegans attack on ten speed bikes
Tattoos with meaning, American Spirit Lights
Freshmen in fatigues. You know he’s fighting for his right
Copious note taker. American Spirit Lights
