Against Me! - Y'all Don't Wanna Step To Dis Lyrics
Four sins past sainthood,
It's like I'm dying to forget
All the sleepless nights,
Lying perfectly alone and still.
I can drink 'till victory,
Drink until I die,
Or at least until the sunrise
When honesty,
As popular as a plague,
Comes to remind me
The dead's winning the race
With me going nowhere.
Right down the street,
A prostitute is selling
The closest thing to love
And Alachua still sleeps tonight,
And Alachua still sleeps tonight,
And Alachua still sleeps tonight...
So we fought for the republic
While the Catholic sun filled every eye.
From the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean,
We drank to the mighty.
We died for oil,
We died for borders,
Killed for democracy,
Still believed every platform.
Can you handle the death,
Accept what we create together?
I still know every politician
Is a fucking monster.
Culture kills bureaucrats
And all other undesireables.
History said we died for freedom,
But today no justice was served,
And America still sleeps tonight,
And America still sleeps tonight,
And America still sleeps tonight,
And I hope it doesn't wake up tomorrow.
So we boasted that we were champions,
Each country singing it's own praise.
Like a rock thrown into the ocean,
Humanity was rising to the top.
Two world wars later,
Countless "military interventions",
We erect monuments to history
And give apologies to the dead.
All that was fought for the living
Is quickly forgotten.
We don't remember the dates,
We don't remember the reasons.
We have no idea what's going on,
Building histories of western corporations.
It doesn't even turn my stomach
To see the pictures of atrocities anymore,
Going numb in the new order
Of the new century.
And Alachua still sleeps tonight,
And America still sleeps tonight,
And the world still sleeps tonight...
And Alachua still sleeps tonight...
And America still sleeps tonight...
And the world still sleeps tonight...

Against Me! Y'all Don't Wanna Step To Dis Comments
this is the best song ever written.
"You don't want to step to this" is a line from the song "Regulate" by Warren G and Nate Dogg. "Regulate" samples "I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near)" by Michael McDonald, which Laura has also covered. Clever.
Still one of my favorite AM songs
I grew up in Alachua County, FLA. They still be sleeping till this day.
What don't I want to step to?
this is my victory song. got an A on a 12 page psych paper with 5 pages of references
This EP. Reminds me of times long past, blasting it in my bedroom, with tears in my eyes. Balling my fucking eyes out!!!
more relevant than ever
Such a powrful message! Awesome song and strong lyrics.
Laura jane grace is such a badass!
flapchunkflap total badass!!!
Ya I've seen em 5 times within the last 4 or so years and have always wanted them to do this song and still haven't heard it, only songs off Crime i've heard live is Impact and Walking Is Still Honest.
fhatdawuck because Walking is Still Honest was recorded for Reinventing Axl Rose and THAT, my friend, is their 'anthem record'!
Man, the ending to this song still gets me every time. In fact the whole composition of this song blows me away. I really hope to hear them preform this song one day live, even after Tom's sex change.
demerol
Laura, her name is Laura. Let's Atleast respect her wish, k
@cuntrytrash Damn right.
But today no justice was served.
Remember Giffords.
A 9 year old girl died today because no one had the balls to call out the tea party.
