lirik lagu michelle malone - flagpole
from the album: stompin’ ground (sbs records)
flagpole mich-lle malone (strange bird songs/ascap)
i see flags blowing like leaves
hanging on to skinny trees
i hope that they dont hit the ground
like burning stars showering down
silent questions in the air
confuse the puppet with the player
a religious right with government
he gets the vote but dont represent me
hold me, give me hope, hold me, dont let go
i see flags hanging like lights
casting shadows down tonight
its hard to know just who to trust
focus groups dont focus on us
i have a wife and 2 small kids
six bucks an hour dont make a dent
when money talks to hear itself
change is made but it dont help
hold me, give me hope, hold me, dont let go
flagpole, run me up
flagpole, run me down
flagpole, run me up
dont run me around, around, around
disenfranchised family
seeking help from agency
that was shut down just recently
the moneys in the middle east
i wish that they could see the light
but theyre too blinded by the glare
of avarice and power and greed
stand tall skinny tree
flagpole, run me up
flagpole, run me down
flagpole, run me up
dont run me around
your flagpole
