Burn Baby

Get rid of the video games littering these streets  
Chuck your guns at the next government sweep
Christen your bibles for this weekends mass  
Give in to rations now that There's a tag on your ass  
 
Hold onto the hate spun from comfy advocates  
Sitting on wealth you couldnt get with infinite wit  
 
Yeah muthafucka, keep on making thousands of new cars each year  
Capitalist yelling about earning and how when you buy its a right, ya hear  
Fuck first responders and teachers who need another job  
Or those doctors getting the same pay as if they spreading sod  
 
Ignore this malcontent with taxation in this nation  
With the same misrepresentation that's presented past devastation  
Yeah they took that lying down  
Oh wait they didnt  
They laid everything on the ground
Death or liberty  as they split
 
But that was in a day where people werent a bunch if pussies  
And didn't bend down for fear of war with modern day Nazis  
 
But hey, it's not your fault, it's that guy over there  
The one you can see with the straw in his hair  
Hes taking all your cash and peddling dope  
Nevermind the man up stairs acting like the pope  
 
The one who brought the coke into this country  
Set it loose in your black neighborhoods in the fifties  
But no it's the other countries fucking you up  
Not the outsourcing assholes telling you 'keep your chin up'  
Easy for them as they have stacks to help them along  
While everyone's broke singing the same  ignorant song  
 
It is almost a new national fuckin anthem  
That humans sing to stave the fire already upon them  
I'll be standing on the hills to watch us all burn  
As penance for a cowardice that cannot be turned.
