Capitol Christian Center
Mirah
oh the capitol christian center they took away my home
my landlord leased it out to them and i began to roam
i put all my belongings in my sweety's big ol' car
and all i've got left's memories and a great big empty heart
who won the war?
who won the war?
who won the war?
it's not them
it's not us
well, i don't know who started things but i sure jumped right in
i raised my flag and cocked my gun and flaunted all my sins
well maybe they thought we was devils, and maybe they was right
but kickin' devils out of hell and nobody's god-given right
well we was rowdy, they was mean
there weren't no findin' inbetween
jesus christ the sinner's savior
ain't no excuse for bad behavior
parking lots instead of houses
senseless as some see-through trousers
holy mary help us all
the christian's gonna build a mall
well mindin' my own business is what i was tryin to do
runnin a bar out of my basement and making records in my room
well they had no idea just how many lives they were ruin'
still they kicked all in the streets and now i'm singing you this tune
well what's the point except for standing for what's right
we held our ground so long, aw hell we spent an extra night
but 9 am september first they barged through our front door
and now we're just the kids who lost our home to a dirty christian war
