Rooted Lyrics by Root

First Root

0

Jesus went into the desert for forty days and forty nights
Had to get his act together, parables eating punchlines
Devil took him to the hilltop showed him the riches of the valley
He said i can get you all this for a small agent's fee

I Can't be rooted
That's what jesus said
I Can't be rooted
I know you think that we are suited
But I just can't be rooted

Some say his name was Wang
He faced off a tank in Tienemann
Cos' he thought his goverment was a tad totalitarian
Soldier from inside the tank said "son you might regret this later
Hop out the way so we dont have to turn you into rice paper"

I Can't be rooted
That's what Wang said
I Can't be rooted
I know that my weight loss is mooted
But I just can't be rooted

I just can't be rooted

I could be in charge of immigration
So i could shut the door to others
Or believe in a higher power
So I can go and kill my brothers
I could win the people with a string of unachieveable promises
Or fight on Cronulla Beach with other guys whose heads are penises

But I just can't be rooted

Look what you can achieve
If you can't be rooted
I can't be rooted
Sing along with me
If you can't be rooted
Sieze the hour, fight the power
Trim 2 minutes off your shower

That is, if you can't be rooted
