Greatest Revenge

歌词

All along the avenues

The soldiers make their way

While lovers reap the revenue

Of a cold September day

Kiss me, darling kiss me

Like we’ll never kiss again

And love me won’t you love me

Like it’s our greatest revenge

No one knows how much it means

The pundit wars, rag magazines

Battle fronts and beauty queens

Making love in the headlines

I feel for all their progeny

How will they know what freedom means

When it’s forged to every cause and claim

On the fear assembly lines

Oh the American sheep

What happened to our chivalry

Now pork is fed to the fattest beasts

And the women and the babies

Are starving on the ship

And the water’s coming in so fast

It’s hard to know how long we’ll last

When you take in more than you give back

Oh you’ll drown under the debt

Oh the American greed

It’s not me

I’m gonna give what I can

Come, come feed the promise that’s inside of me

With a little love, we’ll raise a brand new army up

Of the surest doves with the hearts that gleam like golden guns

With nothing in their arsenal but love

I’d give it all for a legacy of love
