about

Is it just us or is our elections system kinda screwy these days?

lyrics

You trust a broken machine
To fix a broken machine
Then you wonder why you're
ruled by a broken machine

You’re ruled by the mob
Overruled by the bots
Or by a pack of morons
Who don’t give you any thought

Did you really, did you really
Think they wouldn't do the whole damn thing again?
Did you really, did you really
Think they wouldn't pull the same old rotten scam?

You don't have a choice,
You don't have a voice,
You won’t have no freedom if
you're making any noise

But without a voice,
We don't have a choice
If we want our freedom
Than we better make some noise

3 am they're pulling
out ballots in boxes….
They cover up the count
with pizza boxes

Red to blue,
Blue blood to red
Diaper babies
with an empty head

Stand beside ‘em
As you stand in line
But you won’t get counted
‘Til you fall in line

Did you really, did you really
Think they wouldn't do the same old thing again?
Did you really, did you really
Think they wouldn't pull the same old rotten scam?

We don’t have a say,
We just take the blame,
We just watch and suffer
As we’re going down in flames

They don’t have a name,
They don’t have no shame,
Treating us like pawns
in a loaded game

Half the voters rotten
in coffin boxes….
Soap box, jury box
Almost outta boxes

Outta boxes
(Soap box, ballot box, jury box, ammo box)

From '76
to '60 on
Rigged and tampered
and suppression

Well they took your tongue
But you’ve still got guns
Like ‘76
And ‘61

Do they really, do they really
Think we'll never do the same old thing again?
Do they really, do they really
Think we'll cower to lesser pathetic men?

You don't have a choice,
You don't have a voice,
You won’t have no freedom if
you're making any noise

But without a voice,
We don't have a choice
If we want our freedom
Than we better make some noise

Midnight we’re pulling
out ammo boxes
Soap box, jury box
Almost outta boxes
We’re outta boxes
