lyrics

SOMETIMES I REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS LIKE
BEFORE OUR SHIP STARTED SINKING
UNDERCOVER COPS AT THE PICTURE SHOW
THEY COULD TELL WHAT WE'D BEEN DRINKING
HOW WOULD I KNOW AND WHY SHOULD I CARE
IF THIS JUST AN AMERICAN TRADE AFFAIR?

FROM THE START I HAD MY DOUBTS
BUT I FIGURED I WOULD JUST LET THEM GO
THIS GREAT STATE HAS SOLD YOU OUT
NOW YOU DO WHAT YOU'RE TOLD ON THE PAYROLL
HOW WOULD I KNOW AND WHY WOULD I CARE
IF THIS IS JUST AN AMERICAN TRADE AFFAIR?

OCEAN FRONT FUTURES IN PASADENA
WITH THE HOPES THIS TOWN WILL KEEP ON SINKING
UNDER COVER COPS AT THE GOVERNOR'S BALL
WHO COULD TELL WHAT THEY WERE THINKING
HOW WOULD I KNOW AND WHY SHOULD I CARE
IF THIS IS JUST AN AMERICAN TRADE AFFAIR?

Plasma
