Washington’s Blues Lyrics
An albatross flew over this town
No one tried to shoot it down
It tried to blow up the hill
We had to swallow such a bitter pill

Whore’s and President’s along the way
Which was which, I really couldn’t say
I’m watching TV, tryna find what’s true
Well you won’t find it on the TV news!

George is turning over in his grave
Once in motion they couldn’t be saved
Will we ever know what’s true
We’ll forever suffer from Washington’s Blues

The whistling Saints turned their backs
Don’t be surprised, you don’t know Jack
They feed you with lies and with banality
It’s a world of screwed up reality

In the House screaming for war
No one knows what they’re screaming for
They sat down and estimated the costs
It’s all about profit and loss

‘We’ll lose a few but what the hell
For we’ll ring the victory bell
We’ll bring new wealth into the land
Only people like us can understand’

And George turning over in his grave
Crying for the home of the brave
Will we ever learn what’s true
We’ll forever suffer from Washington’s Blues

Whore’s and President’s along the way
Which was which, I couldn’t say
I’m watching TV, tryna find what’s true
Well you won’t find it on the TV news!

George is turning over in his grave
Full of anger, full of rage
Will we ever learn what’s true
We’ll forever suffer from Washington’s Blues
We’ll forever suffer from Washington’s Blues
We’ll forever suffer from Washington’s Blues
We’ll forever suffer from Washington’s Blues
Forever suffer from Washington’s Blues
Washington’s Blues
Washington’s Blues
Washington’s Blues
Washington’s Blues
Washington’s Blues
