Do you remember 2008
When you lost everything
All the stocks went wild
When you started to cry
Chorus:
When the housing market crashed
Was I the only one that laughed?
Your life savings down the drain
Goodbye, investment banks
Cramer says it’s time
For you to, “BUY, BUY, BUY”
Everyone’s in a panic
I didn’t fucking panic (oh no)
Do you remember 2008
When you lost everything
Millions of dollars down the drain
When the housing market tanked
Chorus
Do you remember 2008
When you lost everything
All the stocks went down the drain
When the housing market tanked
Chorus

The Black Flag

No news is good news
(And I can't take it no more)
Every day, ten thousand more issues
And we're off waging new wars
(Chorus)
I want to see our ship on the horizon
The Black Flag raised at half mast
As we all bid farewell together
To the bloody mess we left in the past
If we're forced to stay and fight
But can't ask any questions
And there's no hope to survive
Put flowers in their guns!
Chorus
"I hate a song that makes you think that you are not any good. I hate a song that makes you think that you are just born to lose. No good to nobody. Because you are to old, too young, too fat, too slim, too ugly, or too this or too that. I am out to fight those songs to my very last breath of air, and my last drop of blood. I decided a long time ago that I'd starve to death before I'd sing any such songs as that. The radiowaves on your jukeboxes are already loaded down with such no good songs as that anyhow." -Woody Guthrie
Chorus
We're free and we'll never look back.

American Blues

Deep in the heart of our nation
We see endless oppression
Everywhere we look
Failures of our justice system
Dead homeless black man left to the gutter
IT’S NOT RIGHT
Rise above the system and those lying hypocrites
IT’S NOT FAIR
Up the revolution of the neo-pragmatics
Chorus:
So light my cigarette
And drive me across state lines
Nervous drumming on the dashboard
In a better place and time
well americas a sad place to live
if you care about human beings
we'll violate the constitution
if your a threat to our security
im afriad of my computer
im afraid of my telephone
thats why i have no friends
and always find myself alone
im surronded by ppl
all hopped up on medication
taking drugs they think are helping them
that just keep them sedated
and im filled with apathy
for all the reasons the world hates us
from endless wars, constant spying
and human rights violations
Chorus

Police Brutality Waltz

Well the cops are going out for a ride
Got their nightsticks by their side
Get ready for the arm of the law
Breaking wrists and slappin’ cuffs
They got their community college degrees
High blood pressure and diabetes
They don’t use diplomatic means
When they come to get the crime off the street
Well the cops are going out for a ride
Filling all the jail cells every night
get ready for three hots and a cot
If you’re caught walking on the wrong block
Well police are out on the beat
Gonna rough up some minorities
Flying past the school zone signs
When they’re going to the city out at night
Well the cops are going out for a ride
Got their nightsticks by their side
Get ready for the arm of the law
Breaking wrists and slappin’ cuffs
