MAC's Juarez


dropped off the edge again down in juarez
"don't even bat an eye
if the eagle cries" the rasta man says,
just 'cause the desert likes young girls flesh and
no angel came

i don't think you even know
what you think you just said
so go on spill your seed
shake your gun to the rasta man's head
and the desert- she must be blessed and
no angel came

there's a time to keep it up
a time to keep it in
the indian is told
the cowboy is his friend
you know that i can breathe
even when i cheat
should. should've been over for me
no angel came

  1. Wow, way to make it obvious MAC! I'm getting a little sick of these shock value names on beauty products.

    I'm really tired of all fuss around MAC collection and similar screeds in blogs.

  4. Juarez is one of the most frightening songs i've ever heard. Amos never ceases to amaze. and shame on MAC for only pledging $100,000 to those affected. It makes me sick
