Them Lyrics - Tribal - Dr. John

Puff the magic Jesus 

Floats around the universe 

The United States is His favorite place on the whole entire earth 

So sing your songs and wave your flag 

And thank the Lord for all you have 

But what about them? 

Did you forget about them? 

We came we conquered never speak of this again 

Life Must go on let's not think of them 

Things are comfortable now the pioneers have settled in 

A perfect blend of progress and pale skin 

For our sake and those to come 

We'll rewrite the text so you can forget where you came from 

Tell it in a way that will build your self esteem 

Repackage the product and sell the American dream

Puff the magic Jesus 

Floats around the universe 

The United States is His favorite place on the whole entire earth 

So sing your songs and wave your flag 

And thank the Lord for all you have 

But what about them? 

Did you forget about them? 

History is best forgotten and even better rewritten 

And since there's no forgetting let's remember it different 

Commit to it so strongly till you believe it 

The truth is there but you aren't able to receive it 

You need to know you're safe here 

Hide your face here 'cause you found your faith here 

But four walls with no windows doesn't mean you're it 

Four walls with no windows doesn't mean they don't exist

Puff the magic Jesus 

Floats around the universe 

The United States is His favorite place on the whole entire earth 

So sing your songs and wave your flag 

And thank the Lord for all you have 

But what about them? 

Did you forget about them? 

What a prosperous, wondrous place 

Remember to say grace before we scrape our plates 

And ignore the crying outside the door sure 

You'll pray for their burdens but you don't want to make it yours 

Thin lines divide but there's a world of difference 

So crawl back into your happy existence and feel the bliss of ignorance keep you warm 

Blessed are those who mourn but it's so foreign 

The more you have the less you care 

The less you care the more you become unaware 

And sure life's not fair but it favors us apparently 

And how are we to interpret this excess 

Is it God's favor ill-behavior or simply man's modern progress 

God bless us as we sweep this mess under the rug 

Don't want to walk barefoot on the tile and step in the mud 

Out of sight out of mind and pushed to the side 

Left for someone else to rationalize and justify 

Puff the magic Jesus 

Floats around the universe 

The United States is His favorite place on the whole entire earth 

So sing your songs and wave your flag 

And thank the Lord for all you have 

But what about them? 

Did you forget about them?
