Criminals Lyrics by The Moms (Punk)

The Snowbird

2016

[Verse 1]
It was a full moon in the heartland
When I first had the thought
That all the world's best criminals
Are the ones who won't get caught
No, the ones who are in charge
Living lives where they're living at large
Never to see a charge
[Verse 2]
The ones who own the jails and make the rules
That keep afloat a ship of fools
Convince us that their [?] is always true
The ones that print the money and hide the truth
That turn us into living proof
That what we don't see don't hurt us, 'til it do
[Verse 3]
So this one's for the struggling vet
Who's mind's a mess with traumatic stress
He says, "I've seen things that I can't relate
To anyone else in the lower 48"
So V.A, give me something better
A white picket fence and an Irish setter
Brown, small, strong, courtesy of the state
[Verse 4]
The ones who pull the wool over our eyes
To the atrocities the whole world wide
Convince us that their aim is always true
While they bring bombers, bullets, lies, and knives
Armored trucks and body bags
Making enemies on behalf of me and you
[Bridge]
I want my flag back, you see
If it were up to me
It'd still mean trust, morality, and opportunity
I want my flag back, you see
If it were up to me
It'd still mean honor, and liberty, and prosperity
[Outro]
No more bombers, bullets, lies, and knives
No armored trucks, no body bags
No more coffins wrapped in white, red, or blue
