Dead Precedents Lyrics by Paint It Black
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Ignore history
A charm school success story
Top of the class
In slash and burn diplomacy

Setting phasers to stun is no fun
So says the syllabus for Blitzkrieg 101

So Johnny get your gun
You singed your wings, flew too close to the sun
Too bad you never learned to turn tail and run
That's where we'll come undone

There's a thousand broken hearts on the homefront, baby
That you're too nearsighted to see
That's why you're falling off the charts on the homefront, baby
The mathematics of complicity

We are falling apart
That's as honest as I know how to be
Ignore history   A charm school success story   Top of the class    In slash and burn diplomacy      Setting phasers to stun is no fun   So says the syllabus for Blitzkrieg 101      So Johnny get your gun   You singed your wings, flew too close to the sun   Too bad you never learned to turn tail and run   That's where we'll come undone      There's a thousand broken hearts on the homefront, baby   That you're too nearsighted to see   That's why you're falling off the charts on the homefront, baby   The mathematics of complicity      We are falling apart   That's as honest as I know how to be
