Nathan Rogers - Carmerica lyrics

Here in Carmerica, nothing's free Not the food, not the fuel, not the people, not me Here in Carmerica, deep in the gears Of a four-stroke engine lubricated with tears You can hear it a-comin', long before it appears Here in Carmerica, deep in the gears Here in Carmerica, is makin' me blue Here in Carmerica, miles from you And it could not be sadder, more grim, or more true Here in Carmerica, miles from you Here in Carmerica, moments away Pressure is building just a little each day Ready to rumble, let happen what may Here in Carmerica, moments away Here in Carmerica, land of the cruel Addicted to s**, and addicted to fuel But some of your people are nobody's fool Here in Carmerica, land of the cruel Here in Carmerica, is makin' me blue Here in Carmerica, miles from you And it could not be sadder, more grim, or more true Here in Carmerica, miles from you Here in Carmerica, divided they stand They wait undecided, their heads in the sand Their confidence wavers, then leaves their command Here in Carmerica, divided they stand Here in Carmerica, land that I love The grind of your dollar, the fist in the glove The smooth-runnin' engine when push came to shove Here in Carmerica, land that I love Here in Carmerica, is makin' me blue Here in Carmerica, miles from you And it could not be sadder, more grim, or more true Here in Carmerica, miles from you And I could not feel sadder, more alone, or more blue Here in Carmerica, miles from you
