about

this is a track about the horrors of the George W. Bush administration’s policies of pre-emotive war and lies.

lyrics

this is what we predicted (x4)

back in ninety-six (x2)

and they dismissed us
as too radical
too young
too naive

but look at what we have (x2)

it’s a self-appointed bigot in the oval office
appointing self-righteous bigots to his cabinet
appointing racist judges, racist judges
to the highest courts of our land

and there ain’t gonna be no justice
if we just sit here and take it

so i suggest that we (x2/3)

join hands and raise ‘em
to the highest powers above us
resist the desire (x2)
to take up arms
and lock arm in arm instead
march up the steps
to the highest courts of our land
and take back what’s ours
yeah, we’re gonna take back what’s ours
anyway, anyway, etc.

it’s a self-appointed bigot in the oval office
appointing self-righteous bigots to his cabinet
appointing racist judges, racist judges
to the highest courts of our land

this is what we predicted (x4)
and now look
‘cause this is what we have...
we have (x4)
