The West Is Never Won

Look in the eyes of a new child

Assign a name, a number

Make God a good and a bad guy

Just so they always wonder

Brush up your Beowulf and Shakespeare

Time tables and long division

Overdose the ones and the zeros

Dismantle their intuition

Never believe it, my child

Saddle up into the sun

Long as you keep your heart wild

The West is never won

All of my heroes are crazy

Progress is always heretical

Don't let 'em get to you, baby

I know that you already know

Never believe it, my child

Saddle up into the sun

Long as you keep your heart wild

The West is never won

The West is never won

The West is never won

The West is never won

Never believe it, my child

Saddle up into the sun

Long as you keep your heart wild

The West is never won

The West is never won

The West is never won
