You can’t take too much ‘cause it’s never enough.
No such thing as too much stuff in Winterland.
This tomato’s pretty, but it tastes like fish.
Someone’s playin’ with DNA, getting rich in Winterland.
(chorus)
Wintertime in Winterland. Hide our heads beneath the sands in Winterland.
Wintertime in Winterland. Bury me in the sands of Winterland.
There’s jobs a-plenty. Yeah, they’re back again.
I used to make twenty, now I’ll take ten in Winterland.
We can’t raise taxes, the people spoke.
The state is closing, schools are broke in Winterland.
(chorus)
In the interest of security, Freedom takes it on her knees in Winterland.
Everyone in this country’s come from somewhere.
If you’re coming today, they don’t want you here, in Winterland.
(chorus)
