Johnny Kick A Hole In The Sky lyrics

I saw a star spangled banner yet wave

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I cry, I cry

I was born in a land, I don't think you understand

God damn, what I am

I'm a native of this place, please don't kick me in my face

My race has been disgraced

Won't somebody testify kick a hole right in the sky

(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky)

Slap a liar in his eye, kick a hole right in the sky

(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky)

Johnny, Johnny, Johnny

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I wonder why, why

Put us in your pumpkin shell

Where you keep us very well

It's hell, where I dwell

When history books are full of shit

I become the anarchist, I'm pissed at this

What this country claims to be

It's a lie, no place for me, I bleed

Won't somebody testify kick a hole right in the sky

(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky)

Slap a liar in his eye, kick a hole right in the sky

(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky)

Johnny, Johnny, Johnny

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I decide to defy

Kill my trust if you must, but in my blood there is the lust

For life, that's right

Apache blood is in my heart, thrashing through me like a shark

Crashing through the dark

Won't somebody testify kick a hole right in the sky

(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky)

Slap a liar in his eye, kick a hole right in the sky

(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky)

Johnny, Johnny, Johnny

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I confide, confide

What am I supposed to do, I feel like I'm cut in two

Confused by rules

Do these two cultures clash or am I living in the past?

I ask, please, tell me fast

Won't somebody testify kick a hole right in the sky

(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky)

Slap a liar in his eye, kick a hole right in the sky

(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky)

Johnny, Johnny, Johnny

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I thats right

To what do I belong and if I change will I be wrong

Be wrong, thats wrong

I took my foot and kicked a hole in the sky

I proceeded to plead, forefathers, help me decide

A jagged flash of light struck me in the eye

I turned around and found that I was still alive

Snakes rise high from the purple black sky

The red cloud rains and the black horse rides

Then it dawned on me like the mornin' sun

I'm a part of two worlds and the mornin' comes

Glowing embers tend to remember when

The power that is peace was treated as a friend

I am a master of adaption and I've got to take action

I'm a man, the animal man
