Theme from Stripes Lyrics by Russian Girlfriends

All Around

2015

Protected by distance Sudan doesn't seem so bad
No direct consequence
When I'm in trouble I call my dad
Blood diamonds are boring, besides, they're so 2012
The future's so bright I seldomly see beyond myself
You spent the scholarship, on a sinking ship
Now you work for tips like your loser friends
The world don't make any sense outside of your experience
You decided that your two cents "can make a difference, man"
You got so much culture from your world religions class
You learned some Arabic on your two week mission trip
Your holy hands held victims of hunger never felt
By your college professors or your soft white privilege guilt
Your parents still don't approve
Of your newfound liberal views
But you've got a point to prove
Through laurels and best laid plans
But then shit got way too real
And you exhausted all your appeals
And money's worth more than ideals
Whether or not you lose your hands
Just because they don't know Jesus
Don't make them strangers to crucifixion
White flesh is worth more in pieces
Pound for pound
