Lyrics
all hail the power
the broken crown
streets paved with flowers
statues coming down
we couldn't see
all hail the melody
bricks and mortar
streets drowned in ecstasy
quarter by quarter
we couldn't see
all hail the desert
rivers run dry
streets littered with money
blowin' sky high
Extended Keywords: beautiful hopeful swaggering loops ironic quirky different bouncy driving desert flowers broken crown statues coming down Persian Gulf Saddam Hussein George W. Bush lies deception New Orleans Hurricane Katrina levee breach
