lyrics

I’m writing this song to help my liberal friends
realize that not all racists are dip shit rednecks.
So many of ‘em spend their time manipulating words
and history to back up their twisted arguments

Oh, yes, they sure are insidious mother fuckers,
crafting language to take the so-called “reasonable people” by surprise,
grab ‘em by the hand and feed them racist lies
If you ain’t careful, they’ll come for you next

They believe that there’s a plan to "steal" this land
from the whites who manifest destiny “gave” it to
They argue for free trade but say the people gotta stay behind
They believe that america is and always has been white
They want you to think that ethnic diversity leads to societal collapse

It may sound crazy to you and me but never doubt
The power of their propaganda
Don’t matter how untrue their stories are
They repeat ‘em so much that their fiction turns to fact.

There’s no such thing as “economic nationalism”
Don’t be fooled by assholes like Steve Bannon or Charles Murray
If you keep the people out but let the money in,
you’re both a racist and capitalist
You can’t keep the people out but still let the money in,
and claim you’re not a fucking racist

They believe that there’s a plan to "steal" this land
from the whites who manifest destiny “gave” it to
They argue for free trade but say the people gotta stay behind
They believe that america is and always has been white
They want you to think that ethnic diversity leads to societal collapse

because we can’t trust each other
no, we can't trust each other

If you ain’t careful you’ll catch yourself nodding along to the racist shit they say
