rumbletramp - compost lyrics

well, the rent’s racing the tension
wanna bet who’s first to break?
and the crooked politicians are
all on the f+cking take
and the keepers of the peace
well they shoot people in the street
the civilized don’t seem so civilized
to me
they’re out there k!lling kids
’cause of the color of their skin
and maybe you ain’t raised the stakes
’cause of the neighborhood you’re in
but ain’t you heard the word my friend
that what is right now happening
inside the ghettos happens next
to me and you?

so bring it down, bring it down
tear it to the f+cking ground
rock every prison, courthouse, jail
and dmv
we’ll bulldoze every state building
and in the rubble we’ll plant seeds
and fertilize the ground
with reactionaries
the constitution that you worship’s
just a dirty useless rag
ya know it’s drenched in blood and violence
like your ugly f+cking flag
a right’s not something that you’ve gained
it’s just a tiny list of things
the state hasn’t yet deigned
to take away
and it was drafted up by men
who sought to undermine the peace
they overfished, they overhunted
with intent they spread disease
wherever natives took a stand
they went and called the army in
the pc term for that’s
“manifest destiny”

so bring it down, bring it down
tear it to the f+cking ground
rock every prison, courthouse, jail
and dmv
we’ll bulldoze every state building
and in the rubble we’ll plant seeds
and fertilize the ground
with reactionaries
with the last local drove away
they went to hammering in stakes
built walls of fences
and they called it property
and though those d+ckheads are long dead
we must obey the rules they set
says countless boxes of
government ammunition
but when the lastest low+wage worker
is replaced by a machine
and no one’s left to buy the products
that they’re manufacturing
when the people hit the streets
for bread or blood, oh, they will scream
who will the national guard
be protecting?
