Banana Republic, Septic Isle
Heroes going cheap these days, price a bullet in the head
Stab you in the back yeah laughin' in your face
The black and blue uniforms, Police and Priests
Banana Republic, Septic Isle
Sufferin' in the screamin' sea, sounds like dyin'
It begs too many questions and answers too
Everywhere I go, yeah everywhere I see
Take your hand and lead you up a garden path
Let me stand aside here and watch you pass
Banana Republic, Septic Isle
The black and blue uniforms, Police and Priests
Everywhere I go, yeah everywhere I see
Strikin' up a soldier's song, I know that tune
The black and blue uniforms, Police and Priests
And I wonder do you wonder while you're sleeping with your whore?
The purple and the pinstripe they mutely shake their heads
Glad to see the place again, it's a pity nothing's changed
Banana Republic, Septic Isle
Sufferin' in the screamin' sea, sounds like dyin'
Sufferin' in the screamin' sea, sounds like dyin'
A silence shriekin' volumes violence worse than they condemn
Everywhere I go, yeah everywhere I see
The black and blue uniforms, Police and Priests
Everywhere I go, yeah everywhere I see
Sufferin' in the screamin' sea, sounds like cryin'
Forty shades of green yeah, sixty shades of red
Sharing beds with history is like a-licking runnin' sores
Everywhere I go, yeah everywhere I see
Banana Republic, Septic Isle
Sufferin' in the screamin' sea, sounds like dyin'
The black and blue uniforms, Police and Priests
