lyrics

We got you outnumbered
By Obo Martin

There must’ve been something in the water
There must’ve been something in the food
There must’ve been something we were breathing they were spraying
That had us all subdued
It’s like the whole world had amnesia
It’s like the whole world had the memory of a fish
It’s like holding your head with a concussion
It’s like history did not exist
And I wonder about the wall That they’re building on the border
Is it to keep the Mexicans out or us from crossing over?
It’s like President, So and so
Was just another puppet
I would have voted for another, but they wasn’t on the ballot
It’s like no one even noticed
that we were under siege
in a coup d’état
of the new regime.
It’s like no one said a word
when they shut up
Amy Goodman
it’s like no one ever heard
GMOs Could harm
your children.
and I think that it’s absurd
to attack your own civilians
As if those bombs
did not bring down
those buildings.
It’s like everyone was implanted with a microchip
And you couldn’t get your groceries
if you gave him any Lip
it’s like everyone is focused
on their glowing screens.
It’s like awls anybody ever wanted
was cheaper gasoline
And then it happened
The ancient prophecies came true
A sudden shift in consciousness
And it told us where to go
and what to do
And that “blew my mind”
We got you out numbered
we got you on the run
we got you surrounded.
We recommend you throw down your guns
we got you out numbered.
We got you on the run
we got you surrounded and we shall overcome.
