God Bless Our Dead Marines

Lyrics

They put angels in the electric chair
 The electric chair, the electric chair
 Straight up angels in the electric chair
 The electric chair, the electric chair
 They put angels in the electric chair
 The electric chair, the electric chair
 Straight up angels in the electric chair
 The electric chair, the electric chair
 And no one knew or no one cared
 But burning stars lit up their hair
 And burning stars lit up their hair
 And crawled to heaven on golden stairs
 ♪
 And oh, how we to and fro
 To and fro, to and fro
 ♪
 Oh, how we to and fro
 To and fro, to and fro
 ♪
 Oh, how we to and fro
 To and fro, to and fro
 Oh, how we to and fro
 ♪
 To and fro, to and fro
 This our torched estates
 We're your sweet mistakes
 ♪
 And all them vulgar kings on their dirty thrones
 Who among us will avenge Ms. Nina Simone?
 ♪
 And all them vulgar kings on their dirty thrones
 ♪
 Who among us will avenge Ms. Nina Simone?

 There's fresh meat in the club tonight
 God bless our dead marines
 Someone had an accident above the burning trees
 While somewhere distant, peacefully
 Our vulgar leaders sleep
 Dead kids don't get photographed
 God bless our dead marines
 ♪
 The hungry and the hanged
 The damaged and the done
 Striving along this spinning rock
 Tumbling past the sun
 Get through this life without killing anyone
 And consider yourself golden
 ♪
 Lost a friend to cocaine
 Couple friends to smack
 Troubled hearts map deserts
 And they rarely do come back
 Lost a friend to oceans
 Lost a friend to hills
 Lost a friend to suicide
 Lost a friend to pills
 Lost a friend to monsters
 Lost a friend to shame
 Lost a friend to marriage
 Lost a friend to blame
 Lost a friend to worry
 And lost a friend to wealth
 Lost a friend to stubborn pride
 And then I lost myself
 I love my dog and she loves me
 The world's a mess and so are we
 She tumbles long green, muddy fields
 Sick with joy and glee
 And as she dreams sweet puppy dreams
 Whimpering gently
 There's fresh meat in the club tonight
 God bless our dead marines
 Someone had an accident above the burning trees
 While somewhere distant, peacefully
 Our vulgar princes sleep
 Dead kids don't get photographed
 God bless this century
 ♪
 When the world is sick
 Can't no one be well?
 But I dreamt we was all beautiful and strong
 When the world is sick
 Can't no one be well?
 But I dreamt we was all beautiful and strong
 When the world is sick
 Can't no one be well?
 But I dreamt we was all beautiful and strong...
