Tekster: Nelson. We're All Alright.

You see it dominate the six o'clock news
It's on the cover of your magazines
The television is a horror show
The paper reads like something by Stephen King

You've got forty lashes ?cross your back
Guess your mommy can't control her rage
Could it be 'cause she just found out your
Drunken daddy's got a girlfriend who's half her age?

It's all alright, we're all alright
It's all alright, we're all alright

I see a moralistic bourgeoisie
Blocking clinics in a human chain
While the orphanages overflow
The children playing in the acid rain

Change the channel, God's right hand man
Says send him money or I'll burn in hell
And on the news I find it's all been spent
That's where you money went, they caught him
Playing 'Feed the kitty' in some cheap motel

But it's all alright, we're all alright
It's all alright, we're all alright

Big brother tells me I can't live
Without my MTV, sporty car
Snappy clothes and VISA card
White picket fences and 2, 3 kids

They try to medicate our minds and pray to God
We never find the extent of all damage they did
As April fades into December, it'd do us all good
To remember even the dinosaurs couldn't give fate the slip

Yes my friends, the bottoming is we've got
The dumb leading the deaf and blind
We're fresh out of parachutes
And we're headed for the edge of a cliff

Look at us kids and all we deal with today
We love in fear ?cause of some monkey's disease
And ?cause our parents let the rainforest's die
In twenty years, the sun will boil the seas

And Mr. President don't give a shit
Says, "Hallelujah, the recession's gone"
He spends a tril to keep the commies away
When there's a thousand homeless
Camping on the White House lawn

It's all alright, we're all alright
We're all alright, we're all alright

My question to the American people is
Who do you trust?
