Lyrics for Bad News

Didn't wake up, dead or in jail, some out of town boys, been giving us hell I got some bad news, I woke up missing you My friends are all degenerates but they're all I got The generational story of dropping the plot I heard the cops came, cocky mother fuckers ain't they And ICE is gonna come bust down your door Tried to build a house no one builds no more, but I got a telephone Kids are all scared and all alone The boss stopped bumping, the rock stopped rolling My middle fingers rising and it won't stop showing Got some bad news, fading of our red, white, and blue This lands your land, this lands mine, too Is this all true man, or is it just bad news He said, she said, mirrors and smoke, rights turned red and the lefts All woke, got some bad news, I woke up missing you My friends are all degenerates but they're all I got Everyday on the news someone else is shot I got some bad news, fading of our red, white and blue I served eight years just to be told, that nobody cares And the lands all sold Got some bad news, I woke up missing you This lands your land, this lands mine, too Is this all true man, or is it just bad news Didn't wake up, dead or in jail Some out of town boys, been giving us hell I got some bad news, fading of our red, white and blue
