Adam Friedman - Miley Cyrus lyrics

[Verse 1] When I was a young man I carried my pack And lived the free life of the rover I smoked on sativa, guitar on my back And played my little songs all over [Pre-Chorus 1] But in 2010, my country said: "son It's time to stop rambling, there's work to be done" And they gave me a tin hat, and they gave me a gun And they shipped me away to the war [Chorus] And the DJ played Miley Cyrus A Party in the USA And the DJ played Miley Cyrus And we flew to the Afghan that day [Verse 2] I remember the day our orders came in I was scared and my stomach was sinking And when Martinez got shot, I cried with my gun And I fired right back without blinking [Pre-Chorus 2] And we moved down the range, we pumped ourselves well We chased them with bullets And we showered them with shells And in ten minutes flood we blown them to hell I thought of my mom in Atlanta [Chorus] Cause she always loved Miley Cyrus A Party In The USA Though the words seemed to take on new meaning As I turned nineteen on that day [Verse 3] I looked at my brothers who'd once been young boys And their eyes have gone black from the slaughters And for ten weary weeks I kept myself for life As we moved down the range towards the water [Pre-Chorus 3] But then one day a shell knocked my a** over head And when I woked up in my hospital bed And when I saw what it had done I wished I was dead I never knew there were worse things than dying [Chorus] And the nurses hummed Miley Cyrus As the doctors explained what was wrong Yeah, the nurses hummed Miley Cyrus But I no longer cared for that song [Verse 4] They collected the wounded, the crippled, the maimed And they sent us all home to Atlanta The armless, the legless, the blind and the insane I wore fatigues and a blood red bandana [Pre-Chorus 4] We landed on the same runway we'd lefted on February And when I looked down where my legs used to be I thanked God that no one was waiting for me To grieve and to mourn and to pity [End-Chorus] And the DJ played Miley Cyrus, again A Party In The USA And no one cheered they just stared at us And slowly turned their heads away Yes, they slowly turned their heads away
