But Mama -- that's where the truth is!
But Mama -- that's where the truth is!


They say rioting and looting is a much worse crime than shooting
They say rioting and looting is so much worse than shooting
:cuz it's puttin' the profits down
:cuz it's puttin' the profits down
and the ruthless truth is they think it's just the smoothest

Lyrics

chorus:
Lied to by the Right
Revved up by some douchebag, gettin' ready for a fight

Fascists, wingnut, pundits, trollin' on the forums
for a toddler president.
They'd never admit the fact they just don't give a whit
but you can see that's what they really meant.
We used to get a bonus but now they think they own us
as they loan us our monthly rent.
Now they mire us with a virus as they starve us and they tire us
for the sake of the one percent.

For the sake of the one percent, oh they've been...
chorus:
Brainwashed by the Right
Berserk like a Viking, gettin' ready for a fight

Some gun-totin' sister playin' tyranny resister
crashed the Capitol like a thief
She said "We want to go back to when the country was strong,
with a dictator commander-in-chief."
With a passion and a trashin' as the windows got a smashin'
thinkin' revolution's in the bag
This full-moon Daniel Boone pseudo-shaman looney-tune
wraps himself up in the flag.

Wraps himself up in the flag, oh they were
chorus:
Blinded by the Right
Dressed up like a Nazi, armed and ready for a fight

She fought hard, but she couldn't win the fight
against the lying from the Right.

Mama always told me not to talk to anyone who's not us.
But Mama -- that's where the truth is!

They say rioting and looting is so much worse than shooting
cuz it's puttin' the profits down
and the ruthless truth is they think it's just the smoothest
when the wealthy get to trash a town.
With a kinda disgusting posturing and blustering
authoritarians strut and preen
It gets rough to rebuff all the adolescent stuff
from the faces up on the screen.

Those faces up there on the screen, well they're the
Lying from the Right
Revved up by some douchebag, armed and ready for a fight

Fascists, wingnut, pundits, trollin' on the forums

[counter-verse]
With regret, deep in dept, I'm reading on the net
how all my problems are all my fault
Repeated by some rando quoting paid-up propaganda
some gazillionaire's campaign bought.

Some gun-totin' sister playin' tyranny resister
crashed the Capitol like a thief
She said "We want to go back to when the country was strong!..."

She fought hard, but she couldn't win the fight
against the lying from the Right.
