I'm doing research right now for my anthology on anarchism. The last few nights I've been reading lyrics from punk bands. Lots of amazing stuff that I never knew about.

B, this may cheer you up.

MDC Destroying The Planet

Born so ahead in life it's all a game

There you rule so smug - with no shame

Plan your life in the upper class

You're such a fucking selfish ass

Daddy sets you up with all his cash

Time to sober up from having a blast

A DWI could ruin your career

Or kill someone next to you who you hold dear

Well you found God, you're such a holy creep

In church with all your buddies for the cameras you weep

On your knees, with the good book... you'll keep

Smile to cover up just how much you want to sleep

Life is a party as you sail through Yale

All your frat boy antics, still no jail

How many arrests on your rap sheet were erased?

As the courts always seem to lose your case

And that year and a half in the National Guard

Where no one remembers you being in the yard

A chicken hawk holy warrior for Christ

Watch the war on TV and all the people getting diced

Compassionate conservative you're full of shit

With the country clubbers you're such a hit

For tax cuts for the rich you will lie

As you plan for Social Security to die

How many lives were destroyed today?

And no one can get married... if they're gay

Carpet-bomb the world, collateral damage you say

And just remind the Africans with AIDS to pray

Destroying the planet while making the rich richer

And still manage to make it to bed by nine

Go for a jog and choke on a pretzel

You and your cronies are nothing but swine

Fuck you & God Bless America

Fuck you & God Bless America

Fuck you & God Bless America


>From the album Magnus Dominus Corpus (2004)
