Hellacopters, American Ruse! No longer availableThey told you in school about freedom
But when you try to be free they never let you
They said, "It's easy, nothing to it"
And now the army's out to get you
Sixty nine America in terminal stasis
The air's so thick it's like drowning in molasses
I'm sick and tired of paying these dues
And I'm finally getting hip to the American ruse
I learned to say the pledge of allegiance
Before they beat me bloody down at the station
They haven't got a word out of me since
I got a billion years probation
Sixty nine America in terminal stasis
The air's so thick it's like drowning in molasses
I'm sick and tired of paying these dues
And I'm sick to my guts of the American ruse
Phony stars, oh no! Crummy cars, oh no!
Cheap guitars, oh no! Joe's primitive bar, nah!
Rock 'em back, Sonic!
The way they pull you over it's suspicious
Yeah, for something that just ain't your fault
If you complain they're gonna get vicious
Kick in the teeth and charge you with assault
Yeah, but I can see the chickens coming home to roost
Young people everywhere are gonna cook their goose
Lots of kids are working to get rid of these blues
'Cause everybody's sick of the American ruse
Well well well , take a look around!
Well well well , take a look around!
Well well well , take a look around!
Well well well , take a look around!
Well well well , take a look around!
Hellacopters, Cold night for alligators! No longer availableIt's a cold night for alligators
It's a cold night for dogs
The dogs choke on their barking
When they see alligator persons in the bog and fog
It's a cold night for alligators
When men turn into them in the night
It's a cold night for alligators
It's a cold night for their might
It's a cold night for alligators
Hiding behind the trees with moss
Forever hear the swamp birds screaming
Forever in loss
It's a cold night for alligators
In the blend
It's a cold night for alligators
A perfect monster has no end
Roky Erickson - Cold Night For Alligators From the Album "Gremlins have Pictures"(Maybe the best version of the song)
This Song was inspired from the 1959's movie "The Alligator People"! No longer available
