lyrics

We’re walking and talking
You got your Q and A
We’re walking and talking
I don’t know what to say

I should tell you the truth
But they got me so afraid
I’m feeling black and blue
I don’t know what to say

We’re our own founding family
Our hearts flow with the same blood
Put your faith in our own country
The country of us

You got the hardest questions
Why is the world this way
Your growing comprehension
I don’t know what to say

Our home’s a special territory
We’ve got each other that’s enough
Put your faith in our own country
The country of us

It’s time to join our hands now
Round the table we say grace
There’s more we gotta talk about
I’m gonna find the words to say

So yes family is whoever’s in your heart
And yes differences make understanding hard
And yes not every other family is like us
And yes some people they think they can divide us
And yes lots of people understand us too
And yes you’ll meet them and they’ll love you like I do
And yes we pray because everybody must
For the country that is out there
And for the country of us
The country of us
The country of us

about

The Bushwick Book Club Brooklyn, New York

We started in January 2009 playing songs written in response to Kurt Vonnegut's Breakfast of Champions. We haven't stopped since. We've written & performed songs inspired by everything from "On The Origin of Species" to Dr. Seuss to Raymond Carver. There are BBCs popping up nationwide now. Bushwick Book Club Seattle started in 2010 & is run by Geoff Larson. Our nerdy dare-devilry knows no bounds. ... more
