A Hard Right
There are clocks turning backwards,
there are rights being lost,
you might think you’re unaffected,
but things are worse than you thought.
For your wives and your daughters,
are now property of the state;
they’ll be tracking their cycles,
and they better not be late.
For your women are now watched
by the militarized state;
The old laws have been eradicated,
cause it’s freedom,
the republican fundamentalists hate,
and like the Taliban, your freedoms they’re taking.
You better vote soon, before it’s too late,
cause your rights are disintegrating.
Come fathers and husbands,
throughout the land,
let’s give them an electoral beating,
that they’ll understand,
your vote is your voice,
so please take a stand.
If the freedom of privacy's worth saving,
you better vote soon, before it’s too late,
cause your rights they’re eliminating.
