B.A.C. (Broke Ass Country)

LYRICS:

I’m talkin’ certified cheats 
Seven days a week
Trump in the White House
Make America WEAK!

Yeah, you fuckin’ with a broke ass country
We got some major fuckin’ problems in this broke ass country
So baby listen up, if you wanna fix this broke ass country

Amy Coney Barrett got rammed through the Senate
In a betrayal of democracy’s foundational tenets-- 
That bitch like, didn’t even know the five freedoms
How the fuck she gon’ protect the people?
6 to 3 don’t represent me, 
This shit is busted, honey—can’t you see? 
GOP don’t care about anybody else
Deadly virus? “Go on, fend for yoself”
No stimulus check, this shit’s a wreck,
Mask hangin’ low like down your neck (NOPE!) 
Climate deniers, while stolen land’s up in fires
They don’t give a fuck as long as big oil donors got them hires
Red flags all wavin’ up in the breeze
Pledge allegiance to the GOP
Court might overturn Roe v. Wade
Basic human rights goin’ retrograde 
“Radical left”--that’s how we portrayed 
Throwin’ our bodies ‘gainst the barricade 
They tellin me, “All lives matter,” n’all that pro-life natter,
That ain’t cake, that’s batter. Now go ahead & scatter, yeah.
Give ladies choices in this broke ass country
Black Lives Matter—hear our voices in this broke ass country
We bought dat Clorox just to clean up all this broke ass country
Now follow us, we levelin’ up: watch this, broke ass country

Joe Biden? We need someone better
He ain’t a love note, he a form letter: corporate Democrat 
with his hands in the pockets of the one percent—to my discontent, 
he’s what we got, so bet I’m casting a vote in a swing state, yes, I’m grasping
at straws and laws; it gave me pause,
but I gotta tell you, I’m in because when I see
This country is broke
I wanna gag, I wanna choke
I’m gonna post up on my feed and beg everybody to VOTE!
What we gonna do about all this mess? 
All the fake news, can’t trust the press
While the noblesse lives in excess,
Systemic inequity keep us oppressed--
We might be digging these ditches,
But you know that Mitches get stitches
I’m about to twerk my ass to the polling place and vote out these bitches
Big D? That’s a straight blue ticket
‘cept I’m a progressive—yeah, eat the richest
Grab the guillotine, we goin’ to the streets,
Gen X, Gen Z, don’t tread on me! (WHAT)
Watch, we learn from the best: Toypurina, Che Guevara, Malcom X
Trump throws a coup? We throw one too! 
Fuck your Twitter rants, we’ll turn red blue. YEAH.

Yeah, you fuckin’ with a broke ass country
We need a hammer and a sickle in this broke ass country 
Renegade—you afraid?—up in this broke ass country

Now from the top—“Trickle down” (NOT!)—
That’s a BROKE ass country
These lying motherfuckers all better get caught
Up in this broke ass country
Second term? Yeah, bitch, you thought!
Fuck this broke ass country
Check this revolution you bitches got
We fix this broke ass country.
