Biography:
The Thermals were a pop-punk trio from Portland, Oregon. The band was formed in 2002 and released seven records and toured at least fifteen countries.
The Thermals' sixth LP and debut for Saddle Creek, Desperate Ground, was produced by John Agnello (Dinosaur Jr, Sonic Youth) in Hoboken, NJ. Agnello and The Thermals completed the record and evacuated the studio just hours before Hurricane Sandy ravaged New Jersey, a fate quite fitting when you consider the product.

Verse 2 (same chords as Verse 1):
Draw the bridges,
Dig the ditches deep.
We're gonna need a new border.
Get thyself in line,
It's time for reassignment. It's
Time for a new first world order.
We got a job to do,
We don't ask, we tell you.
Work is freedom.
Sloth is sin.
So pull out your dead roots,
Pull out your best suit.
You know, the one they're gonna
Bury you in.
Pre-Chorus 2 (same chords as Pre-Chorus 1):
Good luck getting God on the phone.
Good luck getting even a tone.
You can trust me,

(You, in the back.)
