Lyrics:
Is it time for you to settle down? Yet your tiredness and sadness keep my spirits up And the guns and greed that is in your heart Is what a deputy lives for Without you deputies exist No voice to broadcast feelings with Intuition, luck and fear Confusion, age and sweat and beer If you won they'd be the new Mekons And you perhaps a myth bygone No, they have something that they can see And history is there to serve our cause Memory, reality Loyalty, idolatry Money growing on a tree Picked by aging little men Deputies do not rely Individual unions Imagination, open eyes They're the new home militia Executive branch in a nation of one Exercise our power To veto, veto, veto Be the man of the hour Laws exist like history books Atlantis State University If you can forget how to ride a bike You have had a good teacher The words are there like a pretty picture Hanging on the bathroom wall At age 16, you are stealing a mirror And find a friend beside you Say your piece incidentally And pick a dancing partner And follow the steps and don't forget You can use it again later If we drink we still think And we wake up in the morning Or we stay out all night long The righteous path is straight as an arrow
