lyrics

Saw two buses crash yesterday
Stranger in a strange country
He hasn't been the same since the Bataan Death March
He hasn't stopped since they first made him start
He never ever liked the rainy season
It never brought good luck for no other reason
He saved a few pesos for a day like today
So he could move far far away

So often that you find the blind lead the blind
In a wicked parade. With a twisted sense of pride
And there's nothing you can teach in a campaign speech
That has not been seen by the eyes of history
Oh

Some dictator, he's screaming again
About a war that he started
All that's missing is a global genocide
But not for lack of effort, God knows that he tried

So often that you find the blind lead the blind
In a wicked parade. With a twisted sense of pride
And there's nothing you can teach in a campaign speech
That has not been seen by the eyes of history
Oh

These few dead prophets that I hold in my pockets
Make it evidently clear they got something right
And we hope that this is not all there is
But if was not, you would not exist

And so often that we find the blind lead the blind
In a wicked parade. With a twisted sense of pride
And there's nothing you can teach in a campaign speech
That has not been seen by the eyes of history
