I’m bearing witness
the uncaring witless
Got chu scared shitless
They got me too
And fear ain’t righteous
In fact it might just
Come back and bite us
Contagious courage could unite us
We’ve got everything to lose

(8/8)

Now I know that’s anti canon
giving up does not seem right
So I’ll make it twice a week and pretend it’s still a fight

But we’ve let our electeds
Play fascist footsie far too long
And perhaps that all they’ve left us with is our voices and our song

(7/8)

And I used to sing a protest song,
To inspire and cause change
But the mission might be altered
When I sing the next refrain

To the pen and to the paper
I’m still here heeding the call
But perhaps I cannot save, instead
Bear witness to the fall

That bloated gloating dipshit
didn’t get there by himself
I don’t think that he can tie his shoes
without somebody’s help
The evil oligarchs and scared and stupid whites
Have sworn a dumb allegiance
to believe each other’s lies

(5/8)

And the claim that they’re afraid
for their family and lives
Then Jesus fucking Christ
Why aren’t you on our side?
This is the fascist government
Of which your fathers warned
So they put in checks and balances
Centuries before yr born

(4/8)

And it’s so fucking frustrating
We the people want these things
But there’s like 100 really rich guys and they’re pulling all the strings
While the elected feckless cowards
Fuck the folks what sent them there
While, they’re literally sitting
in the founding fathers chairs

(3/8)

And we’re marching at the courthouse and we’re marching in the street.
We started marching once a month and now it’s twice a week.

We sing songs and chant our chants
And hold our clever signs
But the thing about these times is that we’re running out of time

They worked toward this moment but find themselves surprised that it’s actually happening
