Lyrics Manic Street Preachers

Manic Street Preachers

Dead Yankee Drawl

Bill and ted and waynes world drawl

Just another dull fucking bore

Vietnams cool now even supermans believed

Hussein still in power as the media war retreats

Suck your honey until you choke

You are a mechanism of social control

Multi-national aim of one world culture

Turning one dollar into another and another

Dead yankee drawl hey we got your beat

Dead yankee drawl hey we love oscar

Smothering injustice seen through starving eyes

Tearing down forests just to earn a buck

Killed off literature for sex and violence

Fed a generation the equivalent of silence

Dragged jack down to self same bigotry

Passive acceptance of a consumer society

Fake sentiments tying up contracts

Making idols of guitars and haircuts

Multi-national aim of one world culture

Turning one dollar into another and another

Dead yankee drawl hey we got your beat

Dead yankee drawl hey we love oscar

Smothering injustice seen through red indian eyes

Silent race war of sweet hollywood lies

Lets go down to greenwich village and desecrate

The noraid slogans that justify 6 countries hate

Lets go down redondo beach and wax body company

Cos reality for t.v. is disney, not king, rodney

Lets go down to indiana youth centre quickly

Tysons money aint as free as junior kennedys

Dead yankee dead yankee dead yankee drawl
