Artist/Band: R.E.M.
Lyrics for Song: Welcome To The Occupation
Lyrics for Album: Document



Hang your collar up inside
Hang your dollar on me
Listen to the water still
Listen to the causeway you are

Bad and educated, primitive and wild
Welcome to the occupation

Here we stand and here we fight
All your fallen heroes
Held and dyed and skinned alive
Listen to the Congress fire

Offering the educated primitive and loyal
Welcome to the occupation

Hang your collar up inside
Hang your freedom higher
Listen to the buyer still
Listen to the Congress
Where we propagate confusion

Primitive and wild
Fire on the hemisphere below
Sugar cane and coffee cup
Copper, steel and cattle
An annotated history the forest for the fire
Where we open up the floodgates
Freedom reigns supreme
Fire on the hemisphere below

Listen to me Listen to me
Listen to me Listen to me
Listen to me Listen to me
Listen to me.
