What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
With 300 miles under your belt,
2
You stop to take a stretch
3
At a rest stop 30 miles north
4
Of Cairo, Illinois
5
Where two rivers meet and run south
6
We'll say, Hey, Trail of Tears Rest Stop
7
Do you really have to commemorate
8
500 years of slavery and murder
9
With a building full of human waste?
10
No pictures, no memories, no apologies,
11
No apologies!
12
Just pictures of war memorials
13
And a well-placed plaque
14
So you can complete that scene
15
Don't tell your children
16
Yeah, we killed more kids than Nazi Germany
17
Get your candy bars;
18
Get back in your cars
19
And let's see how much more we can forget
20
This is our original sin,
21
Our eulogy on bathroom walls
22
A movie that we never cried at
23
About your family dead on the side of the road
24
This is our original sin,
25
Our eulogy on bathroom walls
26
A movie that we never cried at
27
About your family dead on the side of the road
28
No wonder they hate us
29
No wonder they hate us
30
No wonder they hate us
31
No wonder
