A People’s History of the Ironic Haircut Lyrics by The Brokedowns

The Copyrights/The Brokedowns Split

2009

These beliefs don't get better with age
Those prophets had such high hopes
Now they're spinning in their grave
What a sad stretch of years
Watching time go by
Soaking the message up with rhetoric
Making heroes out of hypocrites
Are you surprised?
They drained the venom from the snake
And put the lion in the cage and said goodnight
It's bedtime but the sleep we're getting
Just ain't right
All my beliefs on a ringtone
Captured perfectly
No chance for fresh air
'till they make it digitally
If they're with them then I'm with them
That's my part
I'll take their niacin their vitamins with their kool aid
Whatever they want
I had ideas of my own but that was so long ago
That I forgot
They're in there somewhere
But I don't see them ever getting out
Gimme a head with hair
Long beautiful hair
Shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen
Teamwork, good grades, homework, sports!
