Eight - Forward Russia

California saved your life 
Stated the policy in black and white 
You cornered off your facetious sides 
And they left their heads on foreign soil 

California saved your life 
Proclaimed the modern-day jeremiad 
Timbre changed in the manuscript 
As it pleaded, pale, with you not to... 

Broadcast the lie 
Faded and white 
Promised to say 
Only to say 
What you see 

California saved your life 
But that was only at illness's height 
A documentary proof that you cannot 
Bleed in public is enclosed 

And there's a modern day skid row 
Coming over your bistro 
No-o-oh 

And there's a modern day skid row 
Coming over your bistro 
No-oh 

Castrate the falling of mind (?) 
Mis-sold your head one more time (?) 
See the six-shooter to stay 
Cost-cutting plans underway 

You can't describe the guns today 
They left their homes to fly away 
Attention slipped, a curious flight 
Among the ruins of the child 

California saved your life 
But that was only at illness's height 
A red pulse on the smallest child 
As he blasted over the roof 

And there's a modern day skid row 
Coming over your bistro 
No-o-oh 

And there's a modern day skid row 
Coming over your bistro 
No-oh
