I am a real live nephew of Lord Baltimore
a red necked hippy skid from mobtown
that little bush town south of here
where we all hate New York City
and then September eleventh and we can’t hate no more
New York, New York, New York
You did nothing to deserve this
The vengeance of the guilty on the innocent
If only those who’s hearts bleed only for the holy land
would only see
your heart is where your home is
in america, no matter who is in D.C.
I think I am going to chain myself to the Brooklyn Bridge
a human shield just like those americans living in the so called holy land
