  • There is a company commander
    Smoking old dope
    He would like to make you sick
    Make your skin crawl

    We'll see you in the morning
    And we'll smell him all night
    Don't you love it, don't you love it?
    And don't you love it tonight?
    You're killing the constables
    Every night

    Dragging out the modules
    Freedom in the darkness
    Sincere, sincere, sincere
    Who'd have ever thought it was sincere?

    And their company commander
    He is smoking old dope
    Trying to be different
    It's all in his head

    Give him, give him all he wants
    Give him, give him everything
    Give him, give him all he wants

    The right wingers burning their libraries down
    Giving us the benefits and the doubt
    Where did we lose of control of things?
    Was it Sunday when the circus came to town? Writer/s: John Cale, Mikaelin 'Blue' BlueSpruce, Nita Scott
