Waiting For Earthquakes

[Warwick]

Sat up talkin' late last night
About 69 and who was right
About rock' n' roll and yesterday
About U.F.O.'s, John Lennon and the C.I.A.
Americans blue eyed green eyed best
What you hears not what you get
And if the air don't smell like gasoline
Don't go digging the dirt to keep your conscience clean

[Chorus]
Smiling Irish eyes
Yankee stars and stripes
Back home to where it's safe
To spend your life waiting for earthquakes

Send the unbelievers straight to hell
Don't treat us like Charles Manson out on bail
Gods own city to old New York
Your so sad cause you never saw a gun
And never got shot

[Chorus]
Smiling Irish eyes
Yankee stars and stripes
Back home to where it's safe
To spend your life waiting for earthquakes

So dry your eyes and just wise up
Those ulterior motives are not enough
Cause T.V. lies like T.V. could
Make those troubles seem
Just like Hollywood

[Chorus]
Smiling Irish eyes
Yankee stars and stripes
Back home to where it's safe
To spend your life waiting for earthquakes

Get your culture sorted out
Na na na na na na na
