Its coming through a hole in the air,from those nights in Tiananmen Square.Its coming from the feelthat this aint exactly real,or its real, but it aint exactly there.From the wars against disorder,from the sirens night and day,from the fires of the homeless,from the ashes of the gay:Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.Its coming through a crack in the wall;on a visionary flood of alcohol;from the staggering accountof the Sermon on the Mountwhich I dont pretend to understand at all.Its coming from the silenceon the dock of the bay,from the brave, the bold, the batteredheart of Chevrolet:Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.Its coming from the sorrow in the street,the holy places where the races meet;from the homicidal bitchinthat goes down in every kitchento determine who will serve and who will eat.From the wells of disappointmentwhere the women kneel to prayfor the grace of God in the desert hereand the desert far away:Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.Sail on, sail onO mighty Ship of State!To the Shores of NeedPast the Reefs of GreedThrough the Squalls of HateSail on, sail on, sail on, sail on.Its coming to America first,the cradle of the best and of the worst.Its here they got the rangeand the machinery for changeand its here they got the spiritual thirst.Its here the familys brokenand its here the lonely saythat the heart has got to openin a fundamental way:Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.Its coming from the women and the men.O baby, well be making love again.Well be going down so deepthe rivers going to weep,and the mountains going to shout Amen!Its coming like the tidal floodbeneath the lunar sway,imperial, mysterious,in amorous array:Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.Sail on, sail onO mighty Ship of State!To the Shores of NeedPast the Reefs of GreedThrough the Squalls of HateSail on, sail on, sail on, sail on.Im sentimental, if you know what I meanI love the country but I cant stand the scene.And Im neither left or rightIm just staying home tonight,getting lost in that hopeless little screen.But Im stubborn as those garbage bagsthat Time cannot decay,Im junk but Im still holding upthis little wild bouquet:Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.
