Duncan Sheik - Oh Sri Lanka lyrics

Apartheid for one Is simply not done And we need to slow down the arms race Terrorism is fine It keeps the commies in line And ending world hunger will save face The Middle East is a beast A big drag at least It sure needs some kind of segue But the last thing we need In the land overseas Are displays of American meddling Oh Sri Lanka Your love I cannot find You are so distant You are not one of mine We need to ensure America's pure And takes care of the domestic Old men and old ladies And babies with rabies The places where AIDS has infested Let's take some axes To federal taxes Let's throw away our inhibitions Let's open the doors For standards and poors And mergers and acquisitions I hope you die yuppie scum I can't believe that we came from All the same material The same dead end, the same home Oh Sri Lanka Your love I cannot find You are so distant You are not one of mine Oh Sri Lanka We do not understand You are so ... You ... my land Oh Sri Lanka
