jonah surotchak - welcome to the shakedown lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
now in the house the bill has landed
to subcommittees now it will sing
marked up with riders to pass it
to be recommended favorably
petitioning things just to drop them
the committee are selling their souls
straight to the ground
ignoring them all
all we need is majority rule
[pre+chorus]
we’ll be standing here holding our ground, come what may
keep the bill from heeding dismay

[chorus]
welcome to the shakedown
welcome to the time of the hold
welcome to the shakedown
the senate’s all that’s left to go

[verse 2]
when we all break down in the chamber of congress
cheering s 910
holding dearly our senate in session
together we circle the drain

[pre+chorus]
we’ll be standing here shouting for rights, come what may
oppose committee’s for the coming days

[chorus]
welcome to the shakedown
welcome to the time of the hold
welcome to the shakedown
and we’ve got no place left to go
welcome to the shakedown
welcome to the time of the hold
this to a shakedown
and there’s nowhere left to go

[breakdown]
it’s a game, you’ve been played
it’s a hold, you’re asleep
it’s a pocketed veto that haunts you in your dreams
it’s a cloture you fell for
hook, line and sinker
a statement you signed, that then gave you the finger
a filibuster fake
a backwards trustee
a low rider stake, but you still kiss the ring
this is the shakedown
this is the shakedown
this is the shakedown!

[pre+chorus]
now we’re standing here holding our ground, come what may
keep the bill from heeding dismay

[chorus]
welcome to the shakedown
welcome to the time of the hold
welcome to the shakedown
and there’s nowhere left to go
welcome to the shakedown
welcome to the time of the hold
this to the shakedown
and there’s no place left to go
parties aren’t much but they’re our home
and there’s nowhere else to go!
