    Its coming through a hole in the air,
    from those nights in Tiananmen Square.
    Its coming from the feel
    that this aint exactly real,
    or its real, but it aint exactly there.
    From the wars against disorder,
    from the sirens night and day,
    from the fires of the homeless,
    from the ashes of the gay:
    Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.
    Its coming through a crack in the wall;
    on a visionary flood of alcohol;
    from the staggering account
    of the Sermon on the Mount
    which I dont pretend to understand at all.
    Its coming from the silence
    on the dock of the bay,
    from the brave, the bold, the battered
    heart of Chevrolet:
    Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.
    Its coming from the sorrow in the street,
    the holy places where the races meet;
    from the homicidal bitchin
    that goes down in every kitchen
    to determine who will serve and who will eat.
    From the wells of disappointment
    where the women kneel to pray
    for the grace of God in the desert here
    and the desert far away:
    Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.
    Sail on, sail on
    O mighty Ship of State!
    To the Shores of Need
    Past the Reefs of Greed
    Through the Squalls of Hate
    Sail on, sail on, sail on, sail on.
    Its coming to America first,
    the cradle of the best and of the worst.
    Its here they got the range
    and the machinery for change
    and its here they got the spiritual thirst.
    Its here the familys broken
    and its here the lonely say
    that the heart has got to open
    in a fundamental way:
    Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.
    Its coming from the women and the men.
    O baby, well be making love again.
    Well be going down so deep
    the rivers going to weep,
    and the mountains going to shout Amen!
    Its coming like the tidal flood
    beneath the lunar sway,
    imperial, mysterious,
    in amorous array:
    Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.
    Sail on, sail on
    O mighty Ship of State!
    To the Shores of Need
    Past the Reefs of Greed
    Through the Squalls of Hate
    Sail on, sail on, sail on, sail on.
    Im sentimental, if you know what I mean
    I love the country but I cant stand the scene.
    And Im neither left or right
    Im just staying home tonight,
    getting lost in that hopeless little screen.
    But Im stubborn as those garbage bags
    that Time cannot decay,
    Im junk but Im still holding up
    this little wild bouquet:
    Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.
