GONE WITHOUT A TRACE

(Original lyrics "Eyes without a face" by Billy Idol)

I'm all out of hope
One more bad vote will bring a fall
This was once my home
Don't tell me this is it
there's nowhere left to split
Both parties dropped the ball
no longer can forestall
the ending of it all

parti sans une trace-We're gone without a trace
parti sans une trace-We're gone without a trace
parti sans une trace
We're gone without a trace
No more human race
We're gone without a trace

We spent so much time
Believing all the lies
To keep the dream alive
Now it makes me sad
Wall Street's at a boil
The enemy's on our soil

parti sans une trace-we're gone without a trace
parti sans une trace-We're gone without a trace
parti sans une trace
We're gone without a trace
No more human race
We're gone without a trace

When the government's in trouble they make a dip
Into everybody's pocket then make a slip
Steal your rights and go on Jay Leno while the borders collapse

Barricaded in with the forty-five
Readin' infantry books just to stay alive
I'm thinkin' of you you're out there so
Say your prayers
Say your prayers
Say your prayers

Now I close my eyes
And I wonder what
That whistle is
Now all I can do
Remember old ideals
once alive and new
Flash burns out my eyes
I'd better realize

parti sans une trace-we're gone without a trace
parti sans une trace-We're gone without a trace
parti sans une trace
We're gone without a trace
No more human race
We're gone without a trace
Such a human waste
We're gone without a trace
And now it's getting worse.

Now I'm going to have that one in my head all night. Even the video, with the butt-slap. :asian:
