I Must Not Think Bad Thoughts Songtext
von X

The facts we hate will never meet
Walking down the road, everybody yelling
"Hurry up, hurry up"
But I′m waiting for you, I must go slow
I must not think bad thoughts
What is this world coming to?
Both sides are right, but both sides murder
I give up, why can't they?

I must not think bad thoughts
I must not think bad thoughts
I must not think bad thoughts


The civil wars and the uncivilized wars
Conflagrations leap out of every poor furnace
The food cooks poorly and everyone goes hungry
From then on, it′s dog eat dog
Dog eat body, body eat dog
I can't go down there
I can't understand it
I′m a no-good coward, an American too
A North American, that is

And I must not think bad thoughts
And I must not think bad thoughts
And I must not think bad thoughts
Oh, I must not think bad thoughts
I must not think bad thoughts

When it comes from murder of innocent men
Innocent women, innocent children
Thousands of ′em
My planes, my guns, my money, my soldiers
My blood on my hands
It's all my fault

I must not think bad thoughts
I must not think bad thoughts
I must not think bad thoughts


The facts we hate, you′ll never hear us
I hear the radio is finally gonna play new music
You know, the British invasion
But what about the Minutemen, Flesh Eaters, D.O.A.?
Big boys and the Black Flag were the last American band
To get played on the radio
Please bring the flag, please bring the flag
Glitter disco synthesizer night school
All this noble savage drum, drum, drum
Astronauts go back in time to hang out with the cavepeople
It's about time, it′s about space
It's about some people in a strange place
Woody Guthrie sang about B-E-E-T-S
Not B-E-A-T-S

I must not think bad thoughts
I must not think bad thoughts
I must not think bad thoughts

The facts we hate will never meet
Walking down the road, everybody yelling
"Hurry up, hurry up"
But I′m waiting for you, I must go slow
I must not think bad thoughts
What is this world coming to?
Both sides are right, but both sides murder
I give up, why can't they?

I must not think bad thoughts
I must not think bad thoughts
I must not think bad thoughts
