Roger Waters - Broken Bones

Written by：Roger Waters

Sometimes I stare at the night sky

See them stars a billion light years away

And it makes me feel small like a bug on a wall

Who gives a **** anyway

Who gives a **** anyway

When world war II was over

Though the slate was never wiped clean

We could have picked off of them broken bones

We could have been free

But we chose to adhere to abundance

We chose the American dream

And oh mistress liberty

How we abandoned thee

How we abandoned thee

And oh mistress liberty

How we abandoned thee

Could have been born in Shreveport

Or he could have been born in Tehran

It don't much matter wherever you're born

Little babies mean us no harm

They have to be taught to despise us

To bulldoze our homes to the ground

To believe their fight is for liberty

To believe their God will keep them safe and sound

Safe and sound

Safe and sound

We cannot turn back the clock

Cannot go back in time

But we can say f**k you

We will not listen to

Your bull**** and lies

Your bull**** and
