lirik lagu daemon hatfield - palestine hotel
[verse 1]
let me tell you how i get to work
i get into my car
drive it out to arlington
don’t even think about it anymore
sit in traffic with the other jerks
take exit forty-four
drive a half mile underground
and then i go to war
got hired on a darpa grant
a monthlong fellowship
that was 1999
now i run the f-cking ship
in my office there’s a picture of
the president and me
he’s smiling at the camera
but only with his t–th
[chorus]
i thought it would be different
in the virginia underground
they said i’d make a difference
they said i should be proud
i wish i could remember
but i’m not allowed
you’ll never know what hit you
i’ll never make a sound
[verse 2]
spent a year or two behind the sticks
just lighting up the map
started double-boxing it
so they sent me to iraq
they put me up in the sultan suite
at the palestine hotel
got some fiber and an m15
and i started raining h-ll
two marines outside the door
and another on the roof
i never left the building once
but it sure beat the commute
by the time they shipped me home
i wasn’t sleeping anymore
got some pills from the langley boys
and i started seeing stars
[chorus]
i thought it would be different
in the virginia underground
they said i’d make a difference
they said i should be proud
i wish i could remember
but i’m not allowed
you’ll never know what hit you
i’ll never make a sound
[verse 3]
last night i had a dream about you
same as all the rest
everything in black and white
except your summer dress
red dot on a field of static
moving down below
you’re smiling for the camera
but i have to let you go
[chorus]
i thought it would be different
in the virginia underground
they said i’d make a difference
they said i should be proud
i wish i could remember
but i’m not allowed
you’ll never know what hit you
i’ll never make a sound
