Ani Difranco Millennium Theater Lyrics

Millennium Theater Lyrics

Millennium Theater

Get out there and buy that water and gas

Ramadan, orange alert

Everybody put on your gas mask



First, leak it out about the president

Then stand up and shout impeachment

Pull them coat tails out

From under that little V.P.

Before he has a chance

To get in the driver's seat



Millennium spectacle

Everybody put on a show

Slip the little prince in the back door

21st century, here we go



Digital whiplash

So many formats, so little time

While out in TV nation

Under darkening skies

The resistance is just waiting

To be organized



Halliburton, Enron

Chief Justices for sale

Yucca Mountain Goddesses

Their tears, they form a trail



Trickle down pollution

Patriarchies realign

While the ice caps melt

And New Orleans bides her time

New Orleans bides her time



Ladies and gentlemen

Welcome to tonight's show

The Millennium Theater

Asks that you not smoke

Please turn off your cell phones

And forget what you think you know
