Washington D C - GilScott-Heron[00:00:00]

Symbols of democracy pinned up against the coast[00:00:20]

Outhouse of bureaucracy surrounded by a moat[00:00:24]

Citizens of poverty are barely out of sight[00:00:29]

Overlords escape in the evening with people of the night[00:00:33]

Morning brings the tourists peering eyes and rubber necks[00:00:38]

To catch a glimpse of the cowboy making the world a nervous wreck[00:00:43]

It's a mass of irony for all the world to see[00:00:47]

It's the nation's capital it's Washington D C [00:00:52]

It's the nation's capital[00:00:57]

It's the nation's capital[00:00:59]

It's the nation's capital it's Washington D C [00:01:01]

May not have the glitter or the glamour of L A [00:01:16]

May not have the history or the intrigue of Pompeii[00:01:20]

But when it comes to making music and sure enough making news[00:01:25]

People who just don't make sense and people making do[00:01:29]

Seems a ball of contradictions pulling different ways[00:01:34]

Between the folks who come and go and one's who've got to stay[00:01:39]

It's a mass of irony for all the world to see[00:01:43]

It's the nation's capital it's Washington D C [00:01:48]

It's the nation's capital[00:01:53]

It's the nation's capital[00:01:55]

It's the nation's capital it's Washington D C [00:01:57]

Seems to me it's still in light time people knifed up on 14th street[00:02:02]

Makes me feel it's always the right time for them people showing up and coming clean[00:02:11]

Did make the one seem kind of numb[00:02:20]

It's the nation's capital[00:02:25]

It's the nation's capital[00:02:28]

It's the nation's capital it's Washington D C [00:02:30]

Symbols of democracy pinned up against the coast[00:02:45]

Outhouse of bureaucracy surrounded by a moat[00:02:49]

Citizens of poverty are barely out of sight[00:02:53]

Overlords escape in the evening with people of the night[00:02:58]

Morning come and bring the tourists craning rubber necks[00:03:03]

Catch a glimpse of the cowboy making the world a nervous wreck[00:03:07]

It's a mass of irony for all the world to see[00:03:12]

It's the nation's capital it's Washington D C [00:03:16]

It's the nation's capital[00:03:21]

It's the nation's capital[00:03:23]

It's the nation's capital it's Washington D C [00:03:26]

It's the nation's capital[00:03:30]

Got you feeling capital[00:03:32]

Punishment is capital in Washington D C[00:03:35]
