Anarkikes Letra

Wake up at seven a.m. for shit pay

And something inside is telling me

It's not okay



And my heart feels like it's been torn apart

By a love who thought I was full of shit from the start

Of the chapter of history we wrote

But I drowned in drunken dreams

And now I'm soaked.



My boss says "we should never concede to terrorism

Or give any land back to the Palestinians.

They're just animals, anyway."

And I was so goddam mad

I couldn't think of anything to say.



But Baltimore's got some of the people I most like

Like Mordi, Ira and me, we're the anarkikes

And I love them more than you might ever believe

But autumn's falling fast

And I've got to leave.



I went in Wednesday and I quit my job.

Called my boss a racist, ethnocentric slob.

Stole one last bagel, declared my independence.

I don't think I'm gonna be using him

For a reference.



I biked out to where I knew my friends would be

At the park some fool named after Robert E. Lee.

Ira said "why aren't you at work?" I said "I don't need that shit."

He said "let's paint this town black

Before you abandon it."
