[00:00.00] 作词 : Difranco[00:21.12]White people are so scared of black people.[00:25.86]They bulldoze out to the country, and put up houses on little loop-d-loop streets.[00:31.44]And while America gets its heart cut right out of its chest[00:36.36]The Berlin wall still runs down main street separating east side from west.[00:42.39]And nothing is stirring, not even a mouse, in the boarded up stores and the broken down houses[00:52.50]So they hang colorful banners off all the street lamps[00:57.51]Just to prove they got no manners, no mercy, and no sense.[01:03.03]And I wonder then what it will take for my city to rise.[01:09.57]First we admit our mistakes and then we open our eyes.[01:14.79]The ghost of old buildings are haunting parking lots in the city of good neighbors that history forgot.[01:49.44]I remember the first time I saw someone lying on the cold street[01:55.44]I thought, 'I can't just walk past you, this can't just be true.'[02:00.03]But I learned by example to just keep moving my feet.[02:05.10]It's amazing the things that we all learn to do.[02:10.89]So we're led by denial like lambs to the slaughter[02:16.08]Serving empires of style and carbonated sugar water and the old farmroad's a four-lane[02:25.74]That leads to the mall and my dreams are all guillotines waiting to fall[02:31.05]And I wonder then what it will take for my country to rise.[02:39.03]First we admit our mistakes and then we open our eyes.[02:44.46]'til nation's last taker succumbs to one last dumb decision[02:49.32]And America the beautiful is just one big subdivision.
