I Think My Neighbor is an Insurrectionist

hey you
your hippy-dippy shop seems a spot for something fun

hold up
you’re walking up and down those aisles strapped to a submachine gun

you might think you’re so safe
as you hold on to that steel
but you might find that the folks who think that that’s fine aren’t really the deal

we know what you did
we know what you’re doing
try to take us all down
rude lords of ruin

you know
you never woulda stood for this in twenty-zero-zero
this time
there’s much less of a case but there’s many more desperate weirdos

as my teacher used to say
the American way
show some respect and try the next day
but you couldn’t wait

we know what you did
we know what you’re doing
try to take us all down
rude lords of ruin

your march on Rome
it fell to ruin
you forgot one thing

you might
be thinking you’re scott-free, that the little help you gave ain’t busted
check this
seems every single day they’re catching more folks we trusted

you might think you’re so fine
so devoid of bigotry
put your chief red cloud out
have him speak
it’s easy to see

we know what you did
we know what you’re doing
try to take us all down
rude lords of ruin

your march on Rome
it fell to ruin
you forgot one thing
the constitution
