Obsolete (2014)

Back: Song Ideas

Wrote this while working in Palo Alto.

Obsolete
by Bo Morgan

VERSE 1

violence is in the streets
corruption is in the courts
why are we starving?
why are we dying?
what are we missing?
what do we need?

CHORUS

I murdered your mom.
I murdered your dad.
And if you run away
you’ll get shot in the back

BRIDGE

driving in the heat
sitting in the passenger seat

obsolete, these guns are obsolete
obsolete, these planes are obsolete
obsolete, these wars are obsolete
obsolete, these attitudes are obsolete
obsolete, these beliefs are obsolete
obsolete, these men are obsolete
obsolete, these women are obsolete
obsolete, these families are obsolete
obsolete, these children are obsolete
obsolete, this song is obsolete

VERSE 2

why are we starving?
why are we dying?
what are we missing?
what do we need?

CHORUS x 1
