Nation of Thieves

Nation! Nation! Nation of thieves!

Veronica spends all day chasing little lies
Betty's got something for the blues behind her eyes
Eddie don't talk too much, he can barely stand the pain
As the camera flickers on and on with visions of the end

The beautiful and the insane
Wait for our lucky number
Start a war then liberate this nation of thieves

We like our angels bleeding for the love and the fall
Manipulate reality to understand it all
New abstract suicide
She gets off her little pole now
One fuck, One TV Show, One Nation

With the spiritual war in suburbia your Jesus wept
Perpetual stimulation baby, these angels never die
The come down always last too long and
The world is always running strong
As we pass the time with chemicals and the voices in my mind

Now she walked down these street like some kind of sloppy Jesus
Flashing that big old American hole in your heart
When your prescriptions getting low and your cash flows getting lower
Feed the flesh, Kill the mind, and feed the heart
Your spirit is just a chemical
And your payment is due on the debts that you owe
The debts that you owe!

With the spiritual war in suburbia your Jesus wept
Perpetual stimulation baby, these angels never die
The come down always last too long and
The world is always running strong
As we pass the time with chemicals and the voices in my mind

Nation of thieves!
