The man can't speak without telling a new lie Argue if you want, but no it's not both sides He cheats on his wives, workers, and income taxes Hey Cory Gardner, what do you think about that? He conned your voters, the ones who are left But not every vote is equal in the US He'll never keep his promises, he won't even try Hey Cory Gardner, will it be alright? He's a bully among yes men with no dignity You're either a villain or his property He speaks from the heart, but everything he says is wrong Hey Cory Gardner, whose side are you on? His debt is a fortune, where does his money come from? Nobody can say for sure he won't drop the bomb He knows what we're afraid of, and he knows who Hey Cory Gardner, does he speak for you? You're a mighty big letdown Can you be trusted at all? I'm pretty sure you lie through your pretty teeth About your principles Cuz I know what they're worth

“Do whatever it takes,” is what the bank said. “You’re gonna lose your job, if you can’t.” So they did. Yeah, 2 million fake accounts, created fraudulently. “We didn’t want that at all” is what the bank plead. “We fired all the bad guys, we swear we did,” “but I guess we’ll look at systematic changes as well.” Now there’s a President who owes that bank lots of money. Hundreds of millions can make anybody act funny. The FDIC has a board of directors appointed by the president; The Governors of the Federal Reserve are appointed by the president; The Comptroller of the Currency is appointed by the president; If I made a lot of deals with banks, it’d be nice to be the president. We have a president who owes banks a lot of money. Billions of dollars can make anybody act funny.

Senator Blumenthal, we are calling all The Senators, we'll stand with y'all I know you've got the wherewithal To weather this dangerous Situation that we’re in We can’t have complacency When it’s so plain to see The threat to our democracy It’s an attack of agency if we neglect standing up to the president elect You have got a record of voting for what’s right Connecticut has put her faith in you And that looks good on paper, but it’s only half the fight You’ve got some bigger work, now, to do.

 We need you to stand up and take the lead
 We need you to reach out to us, and we won’t let you down

Well I've never had much faith In my elected officials And I've never cast a ballot for the less of two evils It never made much sense to me Then I saw the flame In the hearts of evil men Feeling no shame because the media's playing Lucifer's speeches all day They watered the seeds of hundreds years past With the devil on their side they stopped hiding And I know that you've fought fight after fight But we need you to fight once more I haven't seen many Angels stay angels Long after Peter invited them in Ain't long before Adam drags them out The pit bosses told me "Keep playing that machine" Under the notion that I should win more More and more over time No wall can be built can't be torn down to the ground No golden tower can outshine the sounds of our spaces We'll take what we need and we'll take it when we need it We'll water the seeds of a hundred years future Any way we can we will And I know that you've fought fight after fight But we need you to fight once more

Hey Chuck I heard you ain't missed a vote Except in Ninety-Three When the rivers rose to drown the corn And fields of good soybeans When the treatment plant went under And Des Moines had nothing to drink Now, I don't remember much of that 'Cause I wasn't even two But ever since November I've felt the rain fall harder I've felt the river rising Like another kind of flood is coming through You said it all yourself, Chuck We've not elected many saints But should presidential rhetoric Be greed and lies and hate? Who shall bear the burden When he tries to play his game? Whose liberties will he prize? Whose rights will he maintain? Hey Chuck The fear of sinking For me, is not that great 'Cause I'm an able-bodied white male Who identifies as straight But I fear for my loved ones Friends and family who ain't So I hope the judiciary chairman Of the Senate will agree To show how farmer from Iowa Can protect their state's minorities And stand against injustices Even if they have no law degree 'Cause you said it all yourself, Chuck We've not elected many saints But is the presidential cabinet A place for greed and lies and hate? How many of your constituents Will bear the burden of his game? Will their liberties be prized? Will their rights all be maintained? Hey Chuck Did you know our state Has global fame to some degree? The caucus every four years Brings us infamy From the countrysides of Europe To the South China Sea That's what I learned while traveling Teaching children of all creeds Who had questions in November Who I'm sure have questions still Of the example that is set for them By the man my state and homeland chose to lead 'Cause you said it all yourself, Chuck We've not elected many saints But is the president a role model For greed and lies and hate? The world's children watching As he tries to play his game Whose liberties will they learn to prize? Whose rights will they maintain? Hey Chuck I heard you don't care If you go down in history But this isn't about glory, sir Or your name inside some book But the job you're here to do, sir For the voters who are flooded with unease 'Cause you said it all yourself, Chuck We've not elected many saints So how will you defend us From his greed and lies and hate? What part will you take, sir When he tries to play his game? Whose liberties will you prize? Whose rights will you maintain? Whose liberties will you prize? Whose rights will you maintain?

I will not be a joke I will not be an ad I will not be a prop on the tv stand Of a wealthy man Who doesn't know, this is our land. These days when I go out, I have a shorter fuse It's not that I'm against different points of view, But I won't tolerate trampling human rights Or dressing up a nazi, and calling him alt-right. If you don't agree, watch the company you keep and don't barter freedom for a promise on the cheap. I will not be a joke . . . Hey there journalists, are you the fourth estate Or just kids clamoring for dessert on your plate? For these sugar coated blues, we share a little blame We ask for the truth, but put no money in the game. Don't give us the easy route, that leaves a country divided We can make room for truth, if you don't save face to hide it. I will not be a joke . . . Now, I'm talking to you, Congress – elected men and women Are you there for us, or is our flag the victim? To two sad jokes, like, “How bad could it get?” Or “How many fascists does it take to tip the Cabinet?” Now is the moment, for you to take a stand And prove you're stronger than these sad corrupted men. I will not be a joke . . . Hey there, old man, in the center ring Looks like a circus, with these words you're brandishing Tossin' promises like knives, then bowin' for applause And when it doesn't come, you say, the game is flawed. Is our country the caravan, with you up on the stage? Is anyone driving, can we be governed by pure outrage? With world leaders watchin' and Putin laughin' I think of that old film, and you look a lot like John Iselin. But we are not a joke . . . Now, I'm singing for the queers, the muslims and the blacks The women, the immigrants and everyone else under attack Our difference is our strength, and our strength can prevail If we remember, one man's comfort, can be another man's bail. This democracy's an experiment, And most experiments fail In the name of love and freedom, let's blaze a brighter trail. 'Cause, we are not a joke We are not an ad We are not a prop on the tv stand We are here to stay Because, this is our land. Yeah, we are here to stay we are here to stay we are here to stay cause this is our land From woody guthrie to today.

℗ © Karmic Fury Records (ASCAP) Old North State (lyrics) Come for the sand and sea Stay for the bigotry Oh that’s not what we want them to think about us So stand up and say we’re better Because we’re better than that Explore the mountainsides But only if you’re male and white But we all pay taxes and some are afraid So please fix the mess that has been made We don’t stand for hate In the Old North State And we’re counting on you To tell the President That we all need a leader Who’s going to make sense Protect the place that we love Protect the people we love Art, music, and scenery It’s all here for you and me But drilling and fracking, destroying the dunes Will cause us to crash and burn real soon We’re counting on you We don’t stand for hate In the Old North State And we’re counting on you To tell the President That we all need a leader Who’s going to make sense Protect the place that we love Protect the people we love This place should be safe for black and white Men and women we all have rights We walk out the door and are bullied and shamed Are you proud we’re the home of the KKK? What do you say? We don’t stand for hate In the Old North State And we’re counting on you To tell the President That we all need a leader Who’s going to make sense Protect the place that we love Protect the people we love Protect the nation we love Protect everything that we love

I don’t like this Staring into the abyss Feeling like I’m gonna puke No stars in my eyes Now it’s time to organize And that’s what I’m gonna do And from your office in DC Cory Booker I hope you take the lead When he steps on our Democracy I hope you make him bleed Don’t give him Don’t give him anything He’ll use it all against us Don’t give him Don’t give him anything He’s Nero not Augustus I may not agree With you on everything But Mr Booker I hope we can Agree that he Is a sad species A bully tyrant of a man Politics is compromise But sometimes that takes a back seat To empower him is to let us down The vulnerable will take all the heat Don’t give him Don’t give him anything He’ll use it all against us Don’t give him Don’t give him anything He’s Nero not Augustus

Advice for Chuck Schumer on Dealing with President Trump You should not try to fuck a butterfly Or waste time teaching the devil a new prayer You shouldn’t light up a smoke in a meth lab Or try to split a sandwich with a bear Cooperating with Trump Is operating like a chump This is true, Chuck Schumer, not just partisan rumor The time to fight is now Don’t check if a scorpion is ticklish Or try to out-think a game of random chance Working hand in hand with Reince Preibus Is like putting a rabid squirrel down your pants Even if you win a staring contest With a zombie you still lose

Dear Senator Wyden I take pride in The fact that you're providing Defending not dividing Our country and our freedom And I thought that you should know then The way you defend edward snowden Keeps me hoping That he won't have to keep on hiding And that you will keep on fighting - For our freedom and our rights and Stand up against the tide that- Has turned as we learned On that November night and I was so very frightened But now it's time to right it Stand up against the classist racist sexist admin Try to reach across the aisle but don't let them get their hands in Passing legislation causing violence and oppression With a bipartisan sheen- so they can front they ain't bad men Got the Donald in there acting like he lives in Mad Men The poorest going hungry while the richest getting fat and The apathetic middle class is scoring high on Madden And I can't help but feel as though the time has come to batten batten! Down the hatches And light up the matches Back-channeling with Glenn Greenwald And Laura Poitras Cornering James Clapper hand the NSA their asses Time for Washington to flip their mothercucking mattress! Yes I KNOW hillary won the popular vote Shows there's a lot of good, that there's a lot of hope But all that matters now is we're stuck in this boat It's an orange tinted groping ship of racist bloat But the voters are a lot folk we can't scapegoat! Please listen when they're hurting and let's lift up those - Who will be marginalized, targeted, who already have been. Hate crimes committed but called religious freedom Threatening our healthcare, our environment, our lives Threatening us on twitter out of pettiness and spite! We've had poison in portland skies From unregulated glass shops Our river is polluted And there's no sign that it will stop The homeless folks get arrested or die out in the cold And the rents are getting higher to make overpriced condos So you see why there are protests And you see why others voted— For Drumpf because they were scared, against Drumpf cuz they do know- That we are on a precipice the precedent is set to have a president that we must dissent against But dissent is getting silenced Or snuffed out with violence Which is why I thought it's time that It's you we can confide in So Wyden, You know we're on your side in Oregon and we're all in so please keep fighting!

All this chatter and name calling Adds layers of chaos to a throbbing commotion Can you clear your conscience? The smokies collapse by foliage ablaze You still know your way in this haze(?) Hold on tight, and take a deep breath We fear resolution results in death Where can the Mockingbird build its nest? The storm gusts on, refusing to (and won’t) rest Take a page from the book of Dolly Parton In our "Call to Arms", a message from the heart A Volunteer State of mind At least, that would be a start His face, caked orange from our land His greed for gold, won’t wash from his hands His dirty molestings, amount to nothing? We need your help We need your help To divest his plans We need your help Take a page from the book of Dolly Parton In our "Call to Arms", a message from the heart A Volunteer State of mind At least, that would be a start He’s no Captain, campaign was shipwrecked Yet he cruised on, at our expense Calling on you, Bob Corker Through the polluted Cumberland, can you patch this ship  and diffuse the mortar? Take a page from the book of Dolly Parton In our "Call to Arms", a message from the heart A Volunteer State of mind At least, that would be a start We need your help We need your help Help
