[Verse 1]
It's comiGng through a hoCle in the
Gair
From those nighGts in TianCanmen
SquGare
It's cominCg from the feel that
this aiFn't exactly real
Or it's reaGl, but it ain't exactly there
From the warEms against disorder
From the sireAmns night and day
From the fiEmres of the homeless
From the asheAms of the gay
DemocrDmacy is coming tCo the USGA
[Verse 2]
It's cominGg through a craCck in
the walGl
On a visionGary floCod of alcGohol
From the staggeCring account of
the SermFon on the Mount
Which I don'Gt pretend to understand at all
It's comiEmng from the silence on
the docAmk of the bay
From the bEmrave, the bold, the
battered heAmart of Chevrolet
DemocrDmacy is coming tCo the UGSA
[Verse 3]
It's comGing from the Csorrow in
the strGeet
The hoGly places wherCe the races
meeGt
From the homicCidal bitchin'
That goes doFwn in every kitchen
To deteGrmine who will serve and who will eat
From the wellEms of disappointment
Where the womAmen kneel to pray
For the gracEme of God in the desert here
And the deseAmrt far away
DemocrDmacy is coming toC the USGA
[Chorus]
SaDmil on, sailC on
O migGhty ship of state
To the shorDmes of need
Past the reCefs of greed
Through the sGqualls of hate
SailG on, sailDm on, saGilC on
[Verse 4]
It's comiGng to AmeCrica fiGrst
The craGdle of the besCt, of the
worGst
It's herCe they've got the range
And the machFinery for change
And it's heGre they've got the spiritual thirst
It's herEme the family's broken
And it's herAme the lonely say
That the hEmeart has got to open
In a fAmundamental way
DemoDmcracy is coming toC the UGSA
[Verse 5]
It's comGing from the woCmen and
the meGn
Oh babGy, we'll be makiCng love
agaiGn
We'll be goiCng down so deep
That the rivFer's going to weep
And the mountGain's gonna shout "Amen"
It's coEmming like the tidal flood
Ambeneath the lunar sway
ImpeEmrial, mysterious, in amAmorous array
DemocDmracy is coming tCo the UGSA
[Chorus]
SaiDml on, saiCl on
O miGghty ship of state
To the shDmores of need
Past the reCefs of greed
Through the sqGualls of hate
Sail Gon, sailDm on, saiGl Con
[Verse 6]
I'm sentiGmental, if you knCow what
I meGan
Oh, I loGve the country, but CI
can't stand thGe scene
And I'm neitCher left or right,
I'm just staFying home tonight
Getting losGt in that hopeless little screen
But I'm stuEmbborn as those garbage
bags that tiAmme cannot decay
I'm junEmk, but I'm still holding
up this litAmtle wild bouquet
Dm c
Democracy is coming to, to the
USGA
To the USDmA
To the UCSA
To the UGSA
