Hungry Freaks, Daddy Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mr. America, walk on by
Your schools that do not teach
Mr. America, walk on by
The minds that won't be reached
[Pre-Chorus]
Mr. America, try to hide
The emptiness that's you inside
But once you find that the way you lied
And all the corny tricks you tried
Will not forestall the rising tide
Of hungry freaks, daddy
[Chorus]
They won't go for no more
Great mid-western hardware store
Philosophy that turns away
From those who aren't afraid to say
What's on their minds
The left behinds of the Great Society
[Instrumental Break]
[Break]
Hungry freaks, daddy
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Mr. America, walk on by
Your supermarket dream
Mr. America, walk on by
The liquor store supreme
[Pre-Chorus]
Mr. America, try to hide
The product of your savage pride
The useful minds that it denied
The day you shrugged and stepped aside
You saw their clothes and then you cried
"Those hungry freaks, daddy!"
[Chorus]
They won't go for no more
Great mid-western hardware store
Philosophy that turns away
From those who aren't afraid to say
What's on their minds
The left behinds of the Great Society
