Humility On Parade

This road leads to rome, that road leads to ruin. i'm all 
up inthe madding crowd, the general's been screwin' us 
around. theland's no longer arable (the farmhands all feel 
terrible)--ariver red with rebel blood to sweep us off our 
feet, do youremember? humility on parade humility on parade
 the welcome wasoverstayed humility on parade (let it run, 
let it run, let theriver run). the remnants of the leisure 
class will crumble! smugbastards will be humbled! forcible 
miscegenation! no bow ties, noinvitations! goodbye to all 
of that... you gotta look theprisoners in the eyes; a 
boldness in their stare you might notrecognize as you 
struggle to recall your names: family andchristian family 
and christian family and christian! untenableposition! here
 comes the inquisition! ("yeah, it'll come it'llcome it'll 
surely come!") i am the mustard on the wedding dress,the 
weevil in the watercress. i lost the language, i 
confess.beyond the false horizon lies the rising up, the 
rising up.
