Gunship Politico Lyrics


On the one they'll catch ya
If you skirt disaster
On the day they told her
But she wannna stay, stayAnd all the ones that saw ya
Witnesses of Goya
Elected to serve ya
'Til your dying day
'Til your dying dayI hope you don't get what you're after
I hope you don't get what you're afterTo whom it may concern
I'm writing of behalf of a brother twiced burned
Well, you'll be reaching your time
Just a product of your mindBut when you continue to let loose on a running man
You send him crashing to the edge of the pavement
You're doing something you don't quite understand
Makin' like he's a lesser manSo be gone, be gone, be free
Just give me a vehicle to ride on
Doing something you don't quite undertstand
Makin' like he's a lesser manIn your gunship, gunship, gunship politico

I hope you don't get what you're after
I hope you don't get what you're after
Gunship, gunship, gunship politico
I hope you don't get what you're afterI know you're reaching your time
Just a product of your mindBut when you continue to let loose on a running man
You send him crashing to the edge of the pavement
You're doing something you don't quite understand
Makin' like he's a lesser manSo be gone, be gone, be free
You got your vehicle to ride on
And off to the commissioner as fast as you can
With your smoking gun in handIn your gunship, gunship, gunship politico
I hope you don't get what you're after
I hope you don't get what you're after
Gunship, gunship, gunship politico
I hope you don't get what you're afterSix men on their knees, eyes shinin'
In the highbeams of the searchlight
Cop's shadows on the wall, several stories tall
Instilling, whoa, such a frightOne's kicked in the gut
He's all cut up by the corner cop
One stands in defense in a broken sentence
Asks not to be shotIf you please
Men of authority
We do not speak your language, see
Please act accordinglyHe wasn't begging
He was just keeping time with his cup
You go on and believe that
You keep your eyes straight upI was just looking
I had no intention to touch
But I know when I'm not welcome
So, I thank you very muchSee a, see a, see the women there demonstrate
See a, see a, see them know but they will not say
See a, see a, see them set the trial date
See a, see a, see the confidence on the DA's faceWatch out for the politicos
Don't mess, mess with the down down pressure way
They got it down pat, they got it down to a tee
No one gets through the lockstep jawYou ain't guilty, but you did get caught
So lack for a better suspect we nominate you
To ride this one out, to see this one through
See a, see a, see a, see aArms thrown up in an ever fearful protest
As the firing squad would ever think to notice
As if you could summon the likes of Moses
To put blood back in his friends veinsAnd if you're one step faster
You can skirt disaster
But if it's not you, it'll be the next guy
Who's the wrong color at the wrong timeAnother days over and the discision still stands
His honor in his chambers, still washin' his hands
You know he's been fiddlin in his room all day
Just trying to wash all his conscience awayNo one's asking for hangman's tree
They just looking for something true to believe
See a, see a
See them know but they will not sayHe wasn't beggin'
He was just keeping time with his cup
He wasn't beggin'
He was just keeping time with his cup
He wasn't beggin'
He was just keeping time with his cupI was just looking
I had no intention to touch
I was just looking
I had no intention to touch
I was just looking
I had no intention to touchI know when I'm not welcome
I said thank you very much

State Radio is an alternative rock group formed in Sherborn, Massachusetts, United States in 2002. They consist of former Dispatch vocalist Chad Stokes Urmston (vocals, guitar), Chuck Fay (bass) and Mike “Mad Dog” Najarian (drums), For generations of great American songwriters, the music and the message have been inextricably linked. Word and deed are one in the same, and the only thing more moving than the rousing call to action is the evocative melody that transports the words like a shell casing.
