lyrics

The town Civil War statue
Over petty crime and merchandise
Seems an unlikely hero
Like a soldier from a sci-fi serial
Redesigned by a team
Of caffeinated pacifists
Thrown like a lance
By racist historians
Loved or hated
No more

Where I come from
They carve Confederate generals
Into the mountains
Are they worried we forgot?
My heritage is perpetually holding me
Over an open flame
Whispering sweet nothings
And in my dreams
I'm a bird-like hominid
But I'm encaged
By idolatrous biologists
And all I want to do is fly
