Antje Duvekot - Milk And Trash lyrics

Well it's 3 a.m., I'm driving in my car Under neon signs I can't see the stars Out in nowhere land where everything looks the same Fenced in dumps and fire lanes It's another in-depth report on the president's underwear While some little girl gets raped out in the Bronx somewhere But thank god out in the suburbs we know where to go to buy a toaster The woman that I met returns to me in a flash Last night there was a party that I think I was at "Why don't you pour yourself a drink, have a seat here on our couch of mink" He says, "May I introduce, this is America" And she says, "You can be king in the land of milk and trash Render your opinion, but first let's see the cash You can buy a defense that's sure to save your a** You can take a walk, there are people living underground It's raining cats and dogs, but it won't trickle down So we'll have another drink, well, we will have another round Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah" So I sat down on the couch next to America There were holes in her veins but she was pretty just the same And she laughed in a strange, innocent way And said, "Let the soundbites rush over you, you won't feel the pain See that man by the door, his name is Sam I am only his who*e is what I am And he will dive for my pearls till I am dry See, the American mind needs its antidepressants And it's evil villains and heroes and wars But I am just a simple girl But I once had a garden, I once was wild But he poisoned it, bit by bit Left me to fend like a motherless child Oh, and you can be king in the land of milk and trash Render your opinion, but first let's see the cash You can buy a defense that's sure to save your a** You can take a walk, there are people living underground It's raining cats and dogs, but it won't trickle down So we'll have another drink, well, we will have another round Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, you can be king in the land of milk and trash Render your opinion, but first let's see the cash You can buy a defense that's sure to save your a** You can take a walk, there are people living underground It's raining cats and dogs, but it won't trickle down So we'll have another drink, well, we will have another round, yeah
