Dangerous - The Arrivals

Citizens

They want the fine print on your flag

It says:

You must wear one hat in service

And another that shows you’re committed to serving

Repatriation

Won’t evade you

You’ll have to prove that you can take the beating

Oh my

It’s getting dangerous

It’s getting dangerous

They want to teach the kids

That there are traditions to defend

They’ll see that old guillotine functions

Just fine on the spines of the counter cultures

Cleaner Christians

Polished buttons

All of us

We’ll have to bleed each other

Oh my

It’s getting dangerous

Fuck, child

It’s getting dangerous

My Grandpa told me what they served him when young

In defense of the state

A fight for Shuri

Weeks, months covered in mud

A ride through China by freight

And does he speak of any glory in blood

A steadfast patriot’s faith?

No

So pray to win

If you follow confident men

But know it was never about your survival anyhow

Just the coin in the trousers of the people in power

And that won’t help you

That won’t help you

That won’t help
