Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Back in the days when the battles raged
And we thought it was nothing
A bookstore man meets the CIA
And we know
Throw me a cord and plug it in
Get the Cradle rocking
Out with the redneck pig old men
And it's gold
[Chorus]
Hair in the hole in my head
Too bad the scene is dead
Memory's in the shadow
Back in time again
[Verse 2]
And I can't forget your terrorized face
When you cried for the shameless
Wasted life, AmeriK-K-Kan
And you smiled
Said why should we run when we cannot hide?
And my flag is burnin'
We could be wrong, but that's alright
We'll rise again
[Chorus]
Hair in the hole in my head
Too bad the scene is dead
Memory's in the shadow
It's back in town again
[Instrumental]
Lookin' away, it's another day
And of course we love you
Radical man meets the CIA
And we said no
We'll round up the Durham H.C. kids
And the Char-Grill killers
Jesse H. coming to our Pit
All-ages show
[Chorus]
Hair in the hole in my head
Too bad the scene is dead
Memory's in the shadow
It's back in time again
