[Chorus]
Banana ReDmpublic, Septic CIsle
Screaming in the DmSuffering sea, sounds like Ccry, cry, crying
Everywhere I Dmgo yeah, Everywhere I Csee
The black and blue Dmuniforms, G Police and priests
[Verse]
And I wonder do you Dmwonder While you're sleeping with your Cwhore
That sharing beds with Dmhistory is like a-licking running Csores
Forty shades of Dmgreen yeah, Sixty shades of Cred
Heroes going Dmcheap these days, G Price: a bullet in the head
[Chorus]
Banana ReDmpublic, Septic CIsle
Suffer in the DmScreaming sea, sounds like Cdie, die, dying
Everywhere I Dmgo yeah, Everywhere I Csee
The black and blue Dmuniforms, G Police and priests
[Verse]
Take your hand and Dmlead you up a garden Cpath
Let me stand asDmide here and watch you Cpass
Striking up a Dmsoldier's song, I know that Ctune
It begs too many Dmquestions, G and answers too
[Chorus]
Banana ReDmpublic, Septic CIsle
Suffer in the DmScreaming sea, sounds like Cdie, die, dying
Everywhere I Dmgo yeah, Everywhere I Csee
The black and blue Dmuniforms, G Police and priests
[Verse]
The purple and the Dmpinstripe They mutely shake their Cheads
A silence shrieking Dmvolumes, A violence worse than they conCdemn
Stab you in the Dmback yeah, Laughing in your Cface
Glad to see the Dmplace again - G It's a pity nothing's changed
[Chorus]
Banana ReDmpublic, Septic CIsle
Suffer in the DmScreaming sea, sounds like Cdie, die, dying
Everywhere I Dmgo yeah, Everywhere I Csee
The black and blue Dmuniforms, G Police and priests (priests, priests, priests...)
