Bedtime Stories - Anomie Belle

I can't be held responsible

For all the mistakes my parents made

'Cause it's their generation that has

Left us a nation of waste

And complacenece and apathy

I can't expect to follow

The example of struggle my parents gave

As they took to the street with no mind

For defeat and condition to speak no to obey

Time goes by and I've become

Less than I could ever dream

Than I could ever know I could have done

You can tell me bedtime stories

And they all end well

But I'm looking on the outside

And it is clear that there is more to tell

You can tell me bedime stories

But they don't include

Suffering injustice that you can't explain

And must dilute and

I am listening to what she said

I am listening to what she said

Time goes by and I've become

Less than I could ever dream

Than I had ever know

I could have done

If I could tell you everytime

I felt myself go along to the fashioning

Of self that's sold to the weakest and the dumb

More than I could ever think

Than I could ever dream

I could have done

Time goes by and I've become

Less than I could ever dream

Than I had ever know

I could have done

If I could tell you everytime

I felt myself go along to the fashioning

Of self that's sold to the weakest and the dumb

More than I could ever think

Than I could ever dream

I could have done

You can tell me bedtime stories

And they all end well

But I'm looking on the outside

And it is clear that there is more to tell
