about

Written on a ukulele during a blizzard in the old city. How funny, that the most advanced military in the world never thought to prepare for an act of nature.

lyrics

How could you send your child off to whoa
Jerusalem of snow?
What will you do with all that tarnished gold
Jerusalem of snow?

When you go, when you go,
When you go back to your home...

How could you just sit around collecting all them lows,
America of old?
Your baseball cards just rot away into mold,
America of old...

Is it gold, is it gold?
Is it gold that you're owed in your home?
