Wall Of Voodoo - Country Of Man Lyrics




I started out in 1954,
"What the hell was it all for?"
He asked himself why-
"What the hell an I gonna do now,
Drink gin all night or fight?"
He says this, he says that-
Why should I believe any of it?

I'm living in the country of man.
I seen 'em lying down on their hands

I seen 'em lying down on their hands
I'm living in the country of man.
I seen 'em lying, dying instead.

Buh, buh, buh, buh, Buh, buh, buh,
Buh, buh,Buh, buh

And the president says,
"Buh, buh, buh, buh, Buh, buh,
Buh, buh, buh, Buh, buh"

"Buh, buh, buh, buh,Buh, buh,
Buh, buh buh, Buh, buh"

Then the papers say,
"Buh, buh, buh, buh,Buh, buh,
Buh, buh buh, Buh, buh....
