A Stupid Litle Song I Wrote (but I Like It)

[charles420]

A BETTER PLAN
by chuck b

Holster that pistol, Mr. P-I-G….
You’re scaring the hell out of me;
You know, I really thought I was free,
Here in the USA

Turn off that taser, Mr. P-I-G….
Who gave you such authority?
Thought this was “my country, ‘tis of thee,”
Here in the USA,
Power-tripping pigs are on the rampage.
I just wanna smoke my mind; you want me in a cage.

…heartbeat quickens, flashing lights behind you;
Quotas must be made, so spotlights blind you!…

Extinguish that blunt, in the ashtray….
Find your higher power in some way,
Never been a better time to pray,
Here in the USA.

I’ll go peacefully, Mr. P-I-G…
You don’t really have to manhandle me;
I don’t deal with my problems violently;
I seek the calm seclusion of THC.

…heartbeat quickens, flashing lights behind you;
Quotas must be made; so spotlights blind you!…

…prohibition’s soldiers, champions of the right;
They will be acquitted if they kick my ass tonight…

Put away the pepper spray, Mr. P-I-G…
I’m not trying to induce anarchy,
Just demonstrating cause I don’t agree
Here in the USA.

…citizens marching toward the Capitol;
We’re standing up for our rights, cause we’re tired of their bull!

…heartbeats quicken as the thick black line blocks our path;
Even as they spray us, we brave rebels laugh-

Cause change is coming- they can’t stop it.
Forward momentum, too strong to block;
Change is going to come, one way or another;
And even if you’re tear gas hits me, you might not get my brother!

…heartbeat quickens, flashing lights behind me;
I make a split second decision; hopin’ fate will find me!

I’m not going to let him search my car,
Faith in the constitution has guided me thus far;
We can’t let this New Police State define who we are.

Read the Fourth Amendment, Mr. P-I-G….
When it comes down to it, you should have very little authority;
The buck’s gonna stop right here, tonight, with me
Here in the USA,
Power-tripping pigs are on the rampage;
However, what these pigs don’t know- I’d rather die than live in a cage!

 

[echo off]

i like it too would go down well as an 'immortal technique' style song, or at least as rap with that semi-industrial rmb.

the only thing that while the song speak of anger, for some reason it doesn't feel angry. it might just be my inability to imagine how to sing it
