G                                                      The ragged flags of Washington
No one lives here anymore                                  Are beating dusty air
       Em                                              Their Gucci Loafers lead us down
    Oh you'd best just go home                             To manicured despair
    G                                                  
You came here in your German car                       Betwixt a hostile
        Em                                                 government and
    And drove up to our home                           Abandoned fatal clay
                                                       Salad forks won't help you get your way
    C                                                  
You ask for seeds                                      
           D                                           Bury me beneath that tree
    'cause you can't see                                   My father's father's grove
   G        D       C (Em in the last verse)           My sons may leave the old country
Ye stand on foreign soil                                   But bones cannot be sold
 C             D             G                         
pH will be the least of many foils                     This store's changed hands
                                                           so understand
                                                       You're not welcome any more
In our land of barren furnaces                         We'll Chuck out all you lying cheating whores!
    And rusting metal scrap
There's nothing for you city folk
    We've surely seen your back

While you were plantin'
    gummy bears
In suburban polity
The land was shifting right beneath your feet
