John Wayne
There's a million palm trees outside
Like people holding picket signs
The beauty of a Palm Spring sky
Is shamed inside my mind
Backdrops and studio lights
Help us swallow the lies
The sunlight hurts my eyes
A western plays all night
George Floyd he's gone for good
The Indio mountains will stay
They remind me of John Wayne
They remind me of John Wayne
He laces his boots for a shift
He makes a trade and He's paid in a check
He's not awake with his knee to the neck
He's just a reed for the bigot's breath
He thinks that he's the same
He thinks he's like John Wayne
Honor and conceit
A father figure to place your belief
We watch our heroes die
Some fade into the sky
Others through the mud
All in the name of love
Who decides?
What is left in a name
When you are a man Like John Wayne
When you are a man Like John Wayne
When you are a man Like John Wayne
Like people holding picket signs
The beauty of a Palm Spring sky
Is shamed inside my mind
Backdrops and studio lights
Help us swallow the lies
The sunlight hurts my eyes
A western plays all night
George Floyd he's gone for good
The Indio mountains will stay
They remind me of John Wayne
They remind me of John Wayne
He laces his boots for a shift
He makes a trade and He's paid in a check
He's not awake with his knee to the neck
He's just a reed for the bigot's breath
He thinks that he's the same
He thinks he's like John Wayne
Honor and conceit
A father figure to place your belief
We watch our heroes die
Some fade into the sky
Others through the mud
All in the name of love
Who decides?
What is left in a name
When you are a man Like John Wayne
When you are a man Like John Wayne
When you are a man Like John Wayne
