From A Hero Never Learns (2009)
That's When the Eagle Screams
Folks are talking and a-talking a how the U.S. ain’t the best But the eagle is getting tired of y’all shitting in his nest You thought he was only sleeping, you plucked feathers out one by one But he just had one eye closed, so amigo ya better run
Cause we’re flying down to Mexico, we’re gonna rain on your parade Thirty pounds of angry eagle and he damn sure ain’t afraid Look out if you gonna take potshots at these American dreams Cause just when you ain’t watching, that’s when the eagle screams
It’s a sticky situation for ol’ Jacque and Pierre Maple syrup can’t stop eagles when they’re flying through the air You can keep your old bacon, you can have your natural gas Look out you old maple leaf, you can kiss this eagle’s ass
Cause we’re flying up to Canadia, we’re gonna rain on your parade Thirty pounds of angry eagle, he damn sure ain’t afraid Look out if you gonna take potshots at these American dreams Cause just when you ain’t watching, that’s when the eagle screams - Shaw!
SOLO
And as for you old Aussies, look out for number one You can keep your old koala bear and Olivia Newton-John You can get physical all you want, but we’re gonna make it stick With some good ol’ apple pie and a big ol’ eagle dick
Cause we’re flying up to Stralia, we’re gonna rain on your parade Thirty pounds of angry eagle, he damn sure ain’t afraid Look out if you gonna take potshots at these American dreams Cause just when you ain’t watching, son, that’s when the eagle screams Just when you ain’t looking, that’s when the eagle screams
