ludlow (pdx) - bumpersticker lyrics

they dammed the fish, now we’re d-mned ourselves
they’ve built a market that’s got freedom for sale
and it’s powered by slave labor and prison cells
oh, the earth is getting hotter but it’s already felt like h-ll

we need our rivers back to the sea
and we need to stop this corporate machine
that in the name of profit has been k!lling everything
we need a resistance of you’s and me’s

’cause we’ve been at war, that’s for godd-mn sure
and we’re not gonna save ourselves
with a government issued voucher
’cause business is good, yeah it’s great
and long ago wealthy fascists bought out the state

i’m tired of turning their wrenches and being f-cking lied to
i’m tired of building products that i can’t even use
all for a dollar or a handful of bucks
trading away my time and health for some rich f-ck

i’ve spent my whole life working for money i’ve already spent
and if property is robbery then so is f-cking rent
they’re treating people like some cheap resource
and if you don’t submit to it they’ll use the police force

we’re worked, we’re buried in collars and cuffs
and i’m starting to feel like there’s a joke being played on us
we’re worked, we’re buried in collars and cuffs
and i’m starting to feel like there’s a joke being played on us

for every gigaton of greenhouse gas that they release
and every bomb dropped in the middle east
for every racist cop who ends another life
and every hungry family without food tonight

’cause we’re all fighting on different fronts
so grab a pen or grab a gun
grab a pen or grab a gun
grab a gun

when did welfare become such a slur?
and why are we blaming women of colour?
while corporate trash is being subsidized
with our tax dollars to lower a market price

they f-cked the air and they f-cked the water
they’ve turned our food into plastic and slaughter
making us vote between two big brothers
but patriarchy is just another abusive f-cking father

and the privilege they give to us is self defense
it’s simple chess, yeah it’s common sense
the middle cl-ss is just a buffer zone
and the united states is the next empire of rome

so raise us out of poverty
what a f-cking joke
that’s sure gonna take a whole
h-ll of a lot of rope
’cause this economic system
it thrives on poor folks
and they’re making up excuses
to keep our wages low
oh, didn’t you know?

for every gigaton of greenhouse gas that they release
and every bomb dropped in the middle east
and every racist cop who ends another life
and every hungry family without food tonight

’cause we’re all fighting on different fronts
so grab a pen or grab a gun
we’re all fighting on different fronts
so grab a pen or grab a gun
(we’re worked, we’re buried in collars and cuffs)
we’re all fighting on different fronts
so grab a pen or grab a gun
(we’re worked, we’re buried in collars and cuffs)
we’re all fighting on different fronts
so grab a pen or grab a gun
(we’re worked, we’re buried in collars and cuffs)

we’re worked, we’re buried in collars and cuffs
