The Lawrence Arms — Kevin Costner's Casino lyrics

Lyrics

Hey Kevin
Exploitation’s nothing new
It’s perfect disguise is your head dress and authentic moccasins
You seemed just like a righteous man
Exposing our great land for what is The ultimate grand larceny
But who would have thought that when you danced
Dollar signs were in your eyes
Above and beyond your large share in Hollywood
You were a wolf in sheeps clothing to a wolf and a people and your bad actions
by far outweigh the good.
The theoretical «oh, we fucked over native Americans» is no match for
consciously stuffing your dick in Reservations are already a pathetic compensation as are the 'rights' we grudgingly give them
A casino could be the only way to rejuvenate collapsed economies of reservation
Indians
But are profits from casinos enough compensation for the fact that we stuffed a huge nation of people into a few tiny towns and raped and murdered their
traditions, stole their land and beat them down
The casinos are fucking corporate run, and initial check for the use of sacred
burial grounds and the casino’s fucking done giving back to the Indian except
for janitor jobs and garbage by the ton
(tough guy eight count) and old Kevin is his own conglomerate
Exploitation through a movie then through blackjack and roulette
Don’t attend or rent his shitty films, cuz his killing at the box office is not
the only thing he has killed
