jack hardy - ask questions lyrics

[verse 1]
the dust bowl is flooded, the northwest is dry
someone strike a match to shed us some light
but all that is burned is a cross in the yard
and a flood in the ninth parish ward

[refrain]
climb up the hill to the capitol
dare to hold them accountable
ask questions

[verse 2]
and jefferson the patriot, fearless and bold
takes sally hemmings when she’s fourteen year old
cannot resist, cannot deny
the way his descendants now have to try

[refrain]
climb up the hill to the capitol
dare to hold them accountable
ask questions

[chorus]
and history has eyes, history has ears
history finds secrets that are buried for years
exploded, explained, exposed and explicit
history will judge us either stupid or complicit
and we know we are not stupid
ask questions
[verse 3]
remember the maine, lusitania too
the gulf of tonkin and pearl harbor too
where there’s a will there’s a way to go to war
and a profit without honor no more

[refrain]
climb up the hill to the capitol
dare to hold them accountable
ask questions

[verse 4]
and joshua believes in heaven and in h+ll
polishes his trumpet in a desert motel
gamblin’ and whorin’ ’til his time comes around
and the towers come tumblin’ down

[refrain]
climb up the hill to the capitol
dare to hold them accountable
ask questions

[chorus]
and history has eyes, history has ears
history finds secrets that are buried for years
exploded, explained, exposed and explicit
history will judge us either stupid or complicit
and we know we are not stupid
ask questions
