Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If you loose and libel lips
You keep sinkin' all my ships
Oh, then you're the one who sank my Lusitania
But somehow it don't register as pain at all
Till it finds our crooked vein
It should help us not remember the Maine
[Verse 2]
Oh, ooh
You're layin' mines along your shore
Oh, no, ooh
Through my hull, it ripped and tore
Oh, ooh
We don't study this war no more
[Verse 3]
So we let our back bones slip
Till the arc spits from our fingertips
And we'll become a hazard in the rain
Oh and we'll get charged out in the rain
And there's a sixty cycle hum
Go ahead, say somethin' dumb
Boy, there's no shame
There's no shame
Go ahead, say somethin' dumb
Boy, there's no shame
[Verse 4]
Oh, ooh
You're layin' mines along your shore
Ooh
Through my hull, it ripped and tore
Ooh
We don't study this war no more
