Well I already got my disease So take your fucking filthy hands off of me I hope you don't expect me to be crucified The best that they can do is to just hang me from the nearest tree Cause it's midnight in San Francisco And I'm waiting here for Jesus on my knees In August and everything after I want somebody else to bleed, for me I said, now la la la la la la la la la la la la la Oh na na na na na na na na na na na ohh.. I came down from North Dakota Cause I had confidence in the military mind Now, everyone I know is just turning showgirl And dancing with their shirt off in some Las Vegas hotel line So I'm going to New York City Cause it got a little sleezy here for me When I find myself alone I know I'm never going home To make the changes, the changes that we need But I no longer know how to pray I live in a dog town, and it's a dalmation parade I changed my spots over and over But they never seem to fade away I am the last remaining Indian Looking for the place where the Buffalo roam In August and everything after Man, them buffalo ain't never comin home In August and everything after Man, them buffalo ain't never comin home
