Forgetting Sudan Lyrics


Tom Flannery Forgetting Sudan


Roll up a news cycle throw it awaywait 'till they tell
you what's important today
illegals climbing fences...gays exchanging vows
they say it's more than heaven will allow
So forgetting Sudan
the speeches are done
sound system torn down
union costs overrun
forgetting Sudan
it's easy lets try
genocide smenocide
we're all gonna die
Back to our cities back to our towns
back to our jokers back to our clowns
back to our rooms and our houses and farms
double bolted doors and smoke alarms
So forgetting Sudan
the speeches are done
sound system torn down
union costs overrun
forgetting Sudan
it's easy lets try
genocide smenocide
we all gotta die
talk in your head
it sounds better that way
they all seem different
in an African way
if they want to kill each other
what am I supposed to do?
got myself a mortgage payment
that'd choke a whole zoo

So While DC burns from the tinder of souls
another child dies before he gets old
too many rest easy when hitting the bed
counting sheep while others count dead
So forgetting Sudan
the speeches are done
sound system torn down
union costs overrun
forgetting Sudan
it's easy lets try
genocide smenodice
we all gotta die
genocide smenodice
we all gotta die
talk in your head
it sounds better that way
they all seem different
in an African way
if they want to kill each other
what am I supposed to do?
got myself a mortgage payment
that'd choke a whole zoo
So forgetting Sudan
the speeches are done
sound system torn down
union costs overrun
forgetting Sudan
it's easy lets try
genocide smenodice
we all gotta die
genocide smenodice
we all gotta die
someday
