Kris Kristofferson - The Year 2003 Minus 25 lyrics

Welcome to 2003 minus 25 Oh, say can you smell her for the smoke God's still up there laughin' so He's gotta be alive Who says He can't take a dirty joke Power is as power does and power slips away It's so easy to abuse Who'd've thought them Arabs would've bought The USA just to give it to the Jews Singin' crime still don't pay just like it used to And you know that time slips away till you die And you know that I don't give a damn when I choose to And you know that it don't hurt so bad when you're high Oh, say does the future of the homesick And the brave even matter anymore There ain't no more reason for them boys To run away than there was to fight before Would you tell me why the hell we'd try to win back in a war What we wasted in the last? Might just ain't as righteous as it used to be before When your army's out of gas Singin' crime still don't pay just like it used to And you know that time slips away till you die And you know that I don't give a damn when I choose to And you know that it don't hurt so bad when you're high Singin' crime still don't pay just like it used to And you know that time slips away till you die And you know that I don't give a damn
