Texas Instruments

(album: The Seduction Of Kansas - 2019)

This place was once underwater then inhabitants
Came to name the land called Texas, their own word for friends

Give us the sound and give us the silence
Give us the sound and give us the silence
Give us the sound and give us the silence
Give us the sound and give us the silence

Spanish conquest got the caddo, and then Mexicans
Tonkowa fought Wichita then white Americans
They got Texas then USA began
Military military, tell me of your friends

Give us the sound and give us the silence
Give us the sound and give us the silence
Give us the sound and give us the silence

This place was once underwater then inhabitants
Came to name the land called Texas, their own word for friends

Give us the sound and give us the silence
Give us the sound and give us the silence
Give us the sound and give us the silence

The hubris of propriety
Macy's day parade history
Puff your chest up so we can see
Who bought the books you read
Who bought the books you read
Who bought the...
Who bought the books you read
