Early American
 
Quick question:

What are the lyrics to this song? I have found two different "interpretations" circulating on various sites

1) Nothing but a savage blur
In your face, in your land
The weight of you is greater than
Forgot my pride
Forgot my side
Don't bother to leave
There's no room outside
Your sense of pride
Nothing here but a savage blur

2) Nothing but a savage bird
in your face
in your land
the weight of you is greater than
forgot my pride
forgot my sign
don't bother to leave
there's no room outside
your sense of pride
nothing here but a savage bird


Just goes to show you people hear what they wanna hear, and don't get the facts straight before they post.

PS I love this song. Does anyone have a live recording they'd be willing to share?

Cool!

What the hell does "forgot my side" mean? Side of potato and vegetable? I don't know Kim, sometimes I just don't know.
