The Feast and The Famine Lyrics


That night they were burning for truth
Down on the corner of 14th and U
They took your soul and they took you for fools
Took all the windows from prisons and schools
Now what's a poor man left to do?

One heart now broken in two
You start untying the hands of the youth
New kids hear the sound of the drumming
Mother Nature your Summer is coming
Yesterday and today
Revolution on its way

Amen
It was The Feast and The Famine
Amen
It was The Feast and the Famine
Feast and the Famine

Crossroads with nothing to lose
Out of the basement and in to the news
Come change, now shit getting heavy
Salvation at the ready
You look when I walked by
Still screaming 'til I die
You can't find peace if you can't find a home
You can't survive as an island alone
Black heart with a gaping wound
Put back together by a troubled groove
Check yourself
Wreck your brains
Where is that P.M.A.?

Amen
It was The Feast and the Famine
Amen
It was The Feast and the Famine
Feast and the Famine

Hey, where is the monument?
To the dreams we forget?
We need a monument
And change will come
Yeah change will come
Is there anybody there? (Anybody there?)
Anybody there? (Anybody there?)
There?

Amen
It was The Feast and the Famine
Amen
It was The Feast and the Famine
Feast and the Famine

Amen
Where is the monument?
To the dreams we forget?
Amen
We need a monument
And change will come
Is there anybody there? (Anybody there?)
Anybody there? (Anybody there?)
There?

The Feast and The Famine Song Chart
  • This is a song from Sonic Highways, an album containing eight songs, each laid down in a different US city. The band would start recording in the studio during the day at each location and then in the evenings, Dave Grohl would interview various local musicians. By day four or five the Foo Fighters frontman would pour over the interview transcripts and outline the songs he wanted to write. Grohl explained to Jimmy Fallon, "I would pick out words, phrases and sentences from the interviews."

    He added: "It was meant to represent that whole week we had been there by telling the stories of the people I had talked to."

    This track was laid down at Inner Ear Studios, Arlington, Washington DC.

  • The song features Bad Brains as the Foo Fighters' guest of honor. The band formed in Washington DC in 1977 and are widely regarded as among the pioneers of hardcore punk.
