| Now, Tommy’s a good father
|
| Of two sons and a daughter
|
| But he wakes up and he asks himself:
|
| Why even bother?
|
| If he cannot feed his family
|
| The wage he’s paid, it’s insanity
|
| Every day he’s dealing with a new calamity
|
| Lost his old occupation
|
| But it wasn’t immigration
|
| It was a machine, automation that replaced him
|
| Politicians left him, corruption since the recession
|
| So he grabs his Smith and Wesson and
|
| says he’ll teach 'em all a lesson like:
|
| Get down on the ground! |
| It’s a stick up!
|
| Nobody make a sound! |
| Don’t even hiccup or empty on the ground
|
| I’m done playing games, so I’m going down in flames
|
| Let it rain over Washington
|
| It’s a stick up! |
| Nobody make a sound!
|
| Don’t even hiccup or empty on the ground
|
| I’m done playing games, so I’m going down in flames
|
| Let it rain over Washington
|
| Now first he’d lost his pension
|
| Sunk into depression
|
| Congress is defecting
|
| It’s been adding to detention
|
| Came back from war, and he’s been post-traumatic stressing
|
| Can’t afford his medicine he took for his aggression
|
| He needs help, relying on this system that rejects him
|
| Took away his benefits, but left him with his weapon
|
| Are the one way ticket
|
| He’s entering the thicket
|
| To do the only thing that he’s thinking will make a difference like
|
| Get down on the ground! |
| It’s a stick up!
|
| Nobody make a sound!
|
| Don’t even hiccup or empty on the ground
|
| I’m done playing games, so I’m going down in flames
|
| Let it rain over Washington
|
| It’s a stick up! |
| Nobody make a sound!
|
| Don’t even hiccup or empty on the ground
|
| I’m done playing games, so I’m going down in flames
|
| Let it rain over Washington
|
| There’s a cold wind blowing
|
| I’m just warning and preparing ya
|
| There’s a cold wind blowing
|
| And it’s coming for America
|
| And it’s coming for America
|
| And it’s coming for America
|
| Get down on the ground! |
| It’s a stick up!
|
| Nobody make a sound! |
| Don’t even hiccup or empty on the ground
|
| I’m done playing games, so I’m going down in flames
|
| Let it rain over Washington
|
| It’s a stick up! |
| Nobody make a sound!
|
| Don’t even hiccup or empty on the ground
|
| I’m done playing games, so I’m going down in flames
|
| Let it rain over Washington |
