American Waste

Black Flag · First Four Years [1983]

The worlds got some plans for me

Courthouse, jails and factories

Black and whites on the street

For me for me I see my place in American waste

Faced with choices I can't take

American waste

American waste

On my own I see my fate

On my own on the way out

Small enough its all spelled out

I know what I see what I want

The doors are closed in this maze

I see my place in American waste

Faced with choices I can't take

American waste

American waste

On my own I see my fate

Boredom looks for its kicks

Going down on death

I see it coming

I can't do anything

Not for me not for me

I won't end up in the heap

I want out I'm free

Burning

Burning

I see my place in American waste

Faced with choices I can't take

American waste

American waste

On my own I see my fate.
