Once They Banned Imagine 가사

We had our heart strings dangling ripe for the yanking And lot of reasons grabby was good Poor huddled masses singing boots up their asses Giving grabby what he needed to pull All the way back to where ghosts from the past were still Fighting their wars from the grave Complete with record burning and threatening and spurning The crime of getting blood on the page Since the big one ended we’d been mostly pretending We’d have had the same gumption and grit As the greatest among us when harm came upon us We wouldn’t hesitate to defend But with or against something’s been out to get us And it looked like something finally did No nobler cause in our lifetime for setting our sails to the wind But once they banned Imagine it became the same old war its always been Once they banned Imagine it became the war it was when we were kids Are you now or have you ever been in cahoots with the notion that people can change When history happens again if you do or you did you’ll be blamed From baseless inquiry To no knocking entry Becoming the law of the land To half cocked excuses for bullet abuse regarding anything browner than tan 'Cause once they banned Imagine it became the same old war its always been Once they banned Imagine it became the war it was when we were kids
