Of Ballots And Barricades

I got Arizona residency one day too late

To vote on this election day

And every year before I’ve been too drunk to register

I’d say “I don’t believe in it anyway"

I still shake my head at ballots cast for elephants

I shake my head at ballots cast for donkeys

'Cause I swear to god our leaders, they will be death of us

There’s no ballot we can cast to set us free

But there’s no brick we can throw that will end poverty

You can’t blow up SB1070.

Things will never be as simple as

When I was twelve years old

Reading Karl Marx in my bedroom alone

And since there have been laws

There have been criminals

There have been thieves since there’s been property

And the day will come again

When none of those things are around

I just hope it’s before people go extinct

So vote November 2nd if it seems right to you

Don’t vote if you think it just holds us down

Just tell me what we’re gonna do on November 3rd

To make sure there’s no government

Left to elect two years from now

Just tell me what we're gonna do on November 3rd

To make sure there's no government

Left to elect two years from now
