lyrics

Well I may need a new muffler but I got plenty in the tank
Ain’t it a shame I can’t plug it in, I got petrol kings to blame
There’s oil in the water but damn I like to drive
It ain’t too hard to be framed a martyr with no room to compromise

Angelina, oh mine, we’ve been working overtime
And I’m tired of handing power to the machine
Put your keys in and drive, lets try out override
Find out what this life can really mean
Do you hear, do you hear truth through lies
Can you see, can you see that dust rise
Angelina, oh mine
Angelina, oh mine

Ignorance ain’t bliss when there’s death upon our shores
Ain’t it sick that they don’t listen to experts anymore
There’s power in the hands of far too many men
Gotta do what we can to change the trend and make it proportionate

Angelina, oh mine, we’ve been working overtime
And I’m tired of handing power to the machine
Put your keys in and drive, lets try out override
Find out what this life can really mean
Do you hear, do you hear truth through lies
Can you see, can you see that dust rise
Angelina, oh mine
Angelina, oh mine

There’s fire in the fields, ain’t too much to bail
I got a feeling who lost the deal, the family farm’s for sale
Our mother may be sick but they got budget needs
There’s no downward trickle when the top is fickle with investors to please

Angelina, oh mine, we’ve been working overtime
And I’m tired of handing power to the machine
Put your keys in and drive, lets try out override
Find out what this life can really mean
Do you hear, do you hear truth through lies
Can you see, can you see that dust rise
Angelina, oh mine
Angelina, oh mine
Angelina, oh mine
