Red Dress

[Verse 1] Hey Jackboot Fuck your war Cause I'm fat and in love And no bombs are falling on me for sure But I'm scared to death That I'm living a life not worth dying for And your plow shear It's a sword And its wide arcing swing chops the heads off of many things Mono crops... Laughter roars Oh high hilarity Oh muck bury me Oh standard bearer carry me burning home from another tour [Chorus] Go ahead put your red dress on Days of white robes have come and gone Come and gone Oh you rivers, oh you waters run Come bear witness to the whore of Babylon [Verse 2] "Hey Slave" They called And we caved We answered To a new name Shout it loud shout it lame But black face it You're such a good dancer Oh you're a star You're carnival Jacaranda petals fall Mix with the blood of the saints Shot down in the square Don't track it in on the soles of your shoes When you're dragged into the back of this car [Chorus] Go ahead put your red dress on Days of white robes have come and gone Come and gone Oh you rivers, oh you waters run Come bear witness to the Whore of Babylon [Verse 3] It's a trap That much is plain Still, maybe send snapshots Of all your sweet pain Playing tortuous games It goes: Lenses, light, fame Read my names on your lips When the man cracks the whip And you'll all shake your hips And you'll all dance to this Without making a fist And I know that it sounds mundane But it's a stone cold shame How they got you tame And they got me tame [Chorus] So go ahead put your red dress on Days of white robes come and gone Come and gone Oh you rivers, oh you waters run Come bear witness to the Whore of Babylon
