REM - Cuyahoga Lyrics
Lets put our heads together and start a new country upOur fathers fathers father tried, erased the parts he didnt likeLets try to fill it in, bank the quarry river, swimWe knee-skinned it you and me, we knee-skinned that river redThis is where we walked, this is where we swamTake a picture here, take a souvenirThis land is the land of ours, this river runs red over itWe knee-skinned it you and me, we knee-skinned that river redAnd we gathered up our friends, bank the quarry river, swimWe knee-skinned it you and me, underneath the river bedThis is where we walked, this is where we swamTake a picture here, take a souvenirCuyahogaCuyahoga, goneLets put our heads together, start a new country up,Underneath the river bed we burned the river down.This is where they walked, swam, hunted, danced and sang,Take a picture here, take a souvenirCuyahogaCuyahoga, goneRewrite the book and rule the pages, saving face, secured in faithBury, burn the waste behind youThis land is the land of ours, this river runs red over itWe are not your allies, we can not defendThis is where they walked, this is where they swamTake a picture here, take a souvenirCuyahogaCuyahoga, goneCuyahogaCuyahoga, gone
