lyrics
Empire Made
by Timothy Wooten
I used to be on the wings of libertines
Till I fell down and out on the streets of Cracker Town
I wanna see the things that have always been empire made
In a factory with green and gold letters that shine above the city
Days turned to weeks and we grew too stoned to think
Bob Jones out their sacred cow - holidays in Myrtle Beach
I wanna see the things that have always been empire made
In a boss machine – I’m pushing all their buttons but nothings coming of it
So I suppose they’ve got laws and guns and boats
You’ll go blind with that state of mind
It’s a kick where it hurts most
I want see the things that have always been empire made
In a factory – I’m pushing all their buttons but nothings coming of it
