You know where I come from You know what I feel You're Yul Brynner Westworld Reporting from the field I threw it into reverse Made a motion to repeal You kicked my legs from under me And tried to take the wheel I told you I wanted to be wrong But everyone is humming a song That I don't understand Now I know that the sun has shined on my side of the street The basket of America, the weevils and the wheat The milk and honeyed congregation, scrubbed and apple-cheeked Salute Apollo 13 from the rattle jewelry seats Mythology's seductive and it turned a trick on me That I have just begun to understand I told you I wanted to be wrong But everyone is humming a song That I don't understand The rodeo is staged, gold circle goat-ropers and clowns A rumble in the third act, tie 'em up and burn 'em down We're armed to the teeth, born a little breech Blue-plate special analysts, cells and SUV's We can't approach the Allies 'cause they seem a little peeved And speak a language we don't understand I told you I wanted to be wrong But everyone is humming a song That I don't understand Prop up The Omega Man, we're primed for victory God gave us the upper hand, there's honor among thieves Temper it with arrogance, a dash of sad conceit The top's down on the T-Bird, we're the children of the free Storm into the boardroom of the conquering elite Did you recognize the madman who is shouting in the streets? Destroy the things that I don't understand Destroy the things that I don't understand
