lyrics

What nations build, we must expect will stand; at least for a minute. Janie bangs out “This Land Is Your Land” on Madison’s spinet. We walk the streets our fathers walked before – past banners and pendants. What morning steals, the evening will restore. We chase independence. This three hundredth birthday seems uncouth to mod Europeans. We tore down every remnant of our youth and trade magazines. These meeting halls and public houses rise up over the Schuylkill where minutemen jump back and feign surprise when they get the tax bill. They said “you sing so well you could mend the Liberty Bell!” But if you’re tired of this old one, we could start a new nation, you and me, just like they did in 1783.
