The Mynabirds – Greatest Revenge lyrics

All along the avenues the soldiers make their way
While lovers drift the avenue of a cold September day
Kiss me darling kiss me like we'll never kiss again
And love me won't you love me like it's our greatest revenge
No one knows how much it means under wars dragged magazines
Battle fronts and beauty queens making love in the headlines
I feel for all the progeny how will they know what freedom means
When it's forged to every cause and crane on the fear assembly lines
Oh the American sheep oh the American sheep
What happened to our cavalry now pork is fed to the fattest pig
And the women and the babies are starving on the ship
And the waters come in so fast it's hard to know how long it will last
When you're taken all then give you back all you found under the
Oh the American greed oh the American greed is not me
I'm gonna give what I can
Come Come feed the promises to the suffering or with little love who raise
Again
Show us stars with hearts that beat like broken guns with nothing in their
Arsenal
Oh no
I'd give it all I'd give it all for a legacy of love
I'd give it all I'd give it all for a legacy of love
I'd give it all I'd give it all for a legacy of love
I will sing I'd give it all I'd give it for a legacy
