Blood Wherever - LeAnne Broas 2004

V1) Waiting out all the sticks they threw at us
In a sense of new resolve of an old ideal
The peaceful seem to always need to shout

Looking past, will we ever learn the way
Can our eyes stay open to acknowledge violence
Here and always was

Lying press that will never spill it all
Keep the masses idle while their children die for
Someone, someone else’s greed

Ch) Blood wherever you go
Follows, flows
Promises that need to be met
Tell us when it carries over

V2) Those who write the book always keeping score
Based on fathers’ sins
Fail to write enough
Keep us hateful and unsure

Even so now here we all are
Someone has to say it
Silence is complacent
They fail to ever write enough

Ch) Blood wherever you go
Follows, flows
Promises that need to be met
Tell us when it carries over

It carries it carries over
It carries, it caries over

I don’t need no Democrat
to make my world run right.
They say one thing at a press hearing
then sell away the light
all for the sake
of your American style prosperity.

I don’t need no Democrat
to make my world run well
gimme something I never did see
a clear conscience on the house
yea that corporate money,
real funny gonna bankrupt ya’.

I don’t need no Democrat
to wipe my ass thoroughly
how do they know what it’s like
they don’t look like you or me
And have they ever
endeavored to wipe their own?

I don’t need no democrat
to make my garden grow
I got all the tools I need
some chicken shit and a hoe.
But they want to lease me,
increase me auto-grow 2000.

I don’t need no Democrat
to give my globe a spin.
Ship it out to India then
shoot it back again.
What they saying they creating
I ain’t buying it.

I don’t need no Democrat
turn the tide around
It’s a tale of faries, it’s temporary
till the elephant’s back in town.
Then he stomps all over you
and the donkey steps aside saying
“What can I do?”

I don’t need no Democrat
for my commander in chief.
Why don’t I just put a smile
on the two-head hungry beast?
Ain’t nothing different
he’ll still eat you while
you’re sleeping. So wake up!

But I ain’t against no democrats
not any kind or creed.
I only hate the ones that say
red or blue is the only scene.
What is this football
or mother-fucking government?!

So give me libertarian
independant or green
even Democrat or Republican
I’ll vote for who I please.
Just one little piece of criteria.
Every time I see it makes me learier.
I’ll throw my chips on the one who isn’t
Bought and sold.
