Chorus:   Banana Republic   Septic Isle   Screaming in the suffering sea   It sounds like crying   Everywhere I go   Everywhere I see   The black and blue uniforms   Police and priests      And I wonder do you wonder   While you're sleeping with your whore   That sharing beds with history   Is like a-licking running sores   Forty shades of green yeah   Sixty shades of red   Heroes going cheap these days   Price; a bullet in the head      repeat chorus      Take your hand and lead you   Up a garden path   Let me stand aside here   And watch you pass   Striking up a soldier's song   I know that tune   It begs too many questions   And answers to,      repeat chorus      The purple and the pinstripe   Mutely shake their heads   A silense shrieking volumes   A violence worse than the condemn   Stab you in the back yeah   Laughing in your face   Glad to see the place again   It's a pitty nothing's changed      repeat chorus
