lirik lagu (i’ve seen) the devil in baton rouge – the durbulence
[intro: narrator]
presenting his excellency, huey pierce long – the dictator of louisiana!
the man who is making many americans regret that the united states ever purchased louisiana…
[verse 1: the durbulence]
a century ago there was a man born in the swamp
he was belligerent and pompous, but inside he had a dream
he saw the city that he lived in left for dead by politicians
so he knew he would grow up and then one day he’d make it clean
with a sense of urgency, he got to work inside the streets
too bodacious but just face it, cause he’ll never take defeat
he was dangerous, maybe so, but he rose, offered hope
took a look into the mirror, in my eyes i saw he
[refrain]
who made that work for you, that church for you
and did it on his own?
he’ll take that hurt for you, that he-rs- for you
and does it all alone
break off a piece for you, make peace for you
and build your son a home
pave the streets for you, foresee for you
and pay off all the loans
who made that work for you, that church for you
and did it on his own?
he’ll take that hurt for you, that he-rs- for you
and does it all alone
break off a piece for you, make peace for you
and build your son a home
pave the streets for you, foresee for you
and pay off all the loans
[chorus]
he’s not what we want, but he might be what we need
he’s not what we want, but he might be what we need
[verse 2]
(he’s not what we want, but he might be what we need)
less man, more legend, but at least he was respected
made him isolated, from himself he needed some protection
maybe husband, maybe father, maybe smothered, maybe slaughtered
maybe monster, maybe king, maybe human, maybe thing
(he’s not what we want, but he might be what we need)
maybe g*nius, maybe grand, maybe dirt, maybe sand
out of all the things they called him, they never called him a man
and it was shared with the whole world, how’s that for socialism
so let a million stare
he’s the vermillionaire
[chorus]
he’s not what we want, but he might be what we need
he’s not what we want, but he might be what we need
