Broken Bones [explicit] Lyrics - Roger Waters

Sometimes I stare at the night sky 

See them stars a billion light years away 

And it makes me feel small like a bug on a wall 

Who gives a shit anyway? 

Who gives a shit anyway? 

When World War II was over 

Though the slate was never wiped clean 

We could have picked over them broken bones 

We could have been free 

But we chose to adhere to abundance 

We chose the American Dream 

And oh mistress liberty 

How we abandoned thee 

How we abandoned thee 

And oh Mistress Liberty 

How we abandoned thee 

Could have been born in Shreveport 

Or he could have born in Tehran 

It don't much matter wherever you're born 

Little babies mean us no harm 

They have to be taught to despise us 

To bulldoze our homes to the ground 

To believe their fight is for liberty 

To believe their God will keep them safe and sound 

Safe and sound 

Safe and sound 

We cannot turn back the clock 

Cannot go back in time 

But we can say "fuck you" 

We will not listen to 

Your bullshit and lies 

Your bullshit and lies
