lyrics

oh say can you see in that land of the free
home of those brave souls who take to their keys
vomiting hatred , adjusting their sheets
while the fascist in chief obsessively tweets
his threats to america, war in the streets
ch:
with each new murder by police the people's outrage grows
with each new thug incursion more people rise up to say no
decades on still saying all you fascists bound to lose
take you on in portland and wherever else you choose
a knee to the neck, a bat to the teeth
a shot to the eye and noone can breathe
fixed bayonets, bullets in guns
crackdowns and curfews and nowhere to run
ch:
new secret soldiers for the fascist in chief
mounting invasions against the cities
where black folks dare challenge their murder by police
there's gas in the neighborhoods, tanks in the streets
ch:
with each new murder by police the people's outrage grows
with each new thug incursion more people rise up to say no
decades on still saying all you fascists bound to lose
take you on in portland and wherever else you choose
