The Broadways - The Pope Of Chili-Town lyrics

stormy seas closing in american society will never be the same again

do you remember what it means to be free?

do you remember when theft was the only threat to private property?

now the cops are stormtroopers on parade

swat team nazi repo men machine guns and grenades

martial law is coming in time the seizure of your home?

they need not charge you with a crime, how can an american feel safe

when police authority runs virtually unchecked?

and how can a human being ignore legislation that signals

the cops declaring war on the private citizen?

there is a bill being discussed right now

that would bring the army into the interior of our country

and do you know where we'd be then?

our every move observed by uniformed militia men

machine guns on every corner and unbridled state of martial law

it's just a little too late to write your congressman

justice for and by the people is long gone

and you can smile dumbly about the rights that you still have

but you're living in a dream

just keep your tv watching jenny jones

your fridge filled up with beer

and you'll n ever even hear your neighbor's scream

until it's you

until it's you
