lirik lagu david crosby - capitol
it’s built to impress you and it works like that
all that white marble and the guards at the door
the metal detector, the following eyes
geometric patterns covering the floor
the symbols of power, eagles and flags
attendants, -ssistants moving like sharks
through crowds of citizens, patriotic souls
visiting the capitol and national parks
and you think to yourself
this is where it happens
they run the whole d-mned thing from here
money to burn
filling up their pockets
where no one can see
and no one can hear
i wonder what they say, say to each other
how do they think, what do they feel
when they come out of those rooms
and put on their faces
is anything they say to the cameras real?
they come for the power for power they stay
and they’ll do anything to keep it that way
they’ll ignore the const-tution
and hide behind the scenes
anything to stay a part of the machine
and you think to yourself
this is where it happens
they run the whole d-mned thing from here
money to burn
filling up their pockets
where no one can see
and no one can hear
and the votes are just pieces of paper
and they sneer at the people who voted
and they laugh as the votes were not counted
and the will of the people was noted
and completely ignored
and you think to yourself
this is where it happens
they run the whole d-mned thing from here
money to burn
filling up their pockets
where no one can see
and no one can hear
