4 blocks from the hospital
2 Blocks from the park
Can’t hear the sirens
For the jackhammers digging up the side walk
They’re digging graves on Broadway
They’re digging graves on Amsterdam
Because The park is overflowing
Whatcha think of that Michigan?
You can’t get your nails done
Or your mullet trimmed and bleached
Nothings open for such necessities
In the city that never sleeps
But the night sky is still flashing
It’s flashing Red it’s flashing blue
It’s a bumpy ride On the upper west side
Just pray that hole is not for you
Michigan Oh Michigan
Stand proud with your maga hats on
Michigan oh Michigan
Stand proud with your semi automatic guns
You already fired of your first round
The moment you open you mouth to preach
But just ask the guys working outside
It’s no fun digging graves in the street

2020 went from Zero to 60
Hotter than the crack of a whip
Black lives matter over shadowed
That Covid son of a bitch
The whole world was reeling
As the plague was stealing lives
Just snatching them up
But then a white mans knee, On a black mans neck
Marked the moment we’d re write the book
And it’ll be written in blood
On the skin of the white mans back
And if you don’t like the way that it reads
Well just rewrite it with the bull whips crack
It aint nothing new
Its just history repeating itself
But we couldn’t read the feed
We just watched it bleed
Red on black
But the message was clear
Under the glow of the big white moon
“Grab another beer, sit down here
Play another fiddle tune”
They hand them high in the woods
They hang them low by the courthouse steps
White racist mother fuckers
Bible bashing Hitler lovers
History will never forget
Ok Back to the plague:
I guess the planet couldn’t find a mask
Cos the earth is just coughing itself inside out
Its 90 in the shade
Still it’s the coldest of days
But you can warm your hand on the buildings burning down
Cos all hell just broke loose
Spat out its germs and dressed them all up in blue
If you thought they’d come to save ya
Cos they’re on their best behavior
Think again black boy, they’re coming for you
And they’re coming for you first
So let the cameras roll
They’re coming out swinging
Let the cameras roll
They’re coming out shooting
Praying for looting
Let the cameras roll
For a second they looked almost human
But they were just mourning the loss of their
Beloved, choke-hold
It’s a video game
And we know who’s in control
That white racist mother fucker
Bible bashing Hitler lover
In that house that’s supremely
Whiter than whiter than white

2020 census nonsenselist
02:59
|
|||
The 2020 nonsenselist sits unfinished
Beside its prepaid if in the States
Envelope that is most definitely white
Unlike
The skin or blood of anyone
Who doesn't fit tight - in the boxes just right
Are you Part of the mass or part the massacred?
A native tribe? There's a whole list of them
And White means just about anything
But it's unclear if it means Jew
Me, my father and grandfather
Would be in different boxes in the 2020 nonsenselist
Which line should i follow
My Irish, Asian or English?
But come on
that's an easy one
Ask any Irish American
Who’s never been back to the homeland
The rolling lilting greenlands
They define me by my accent
But the forget they were once Black
Or at best just Black turned inside out
That wasn’t in the pamphlet that was handed out
On the boat to Ellis island
I guess My blood
Took a different boat than the blood you cling to
Top of the whites in the 2020 nonsenselist
Is German, and get this
You are most definitely welcome
But here
Is the catch,
Not if you were caught
with a finger on the switch
Of the chamber in Auschwitz
Which apparently did not even exist
Just like the jews
Who are not on this nonsenselist
Just like Global warming
And Pandemics and unheeded warnings
Or the bodies in mass graves on Hart island
Which despite the late coming - of spring - are not yet cold
There's a box for Africans
And African Americans
Or blacks from wherever they’re from
Noone really cares or really knows?
Because you’re good, your safe
Remember you were once slaves
There will always be a cage
Waiting here for you
Because
You
Are the true
American Dream
The great big black shiny
Money machine
Can you believe the Italians made the white cut?
I guess historys memory is pretty short
And Lebanese? Please?
Iranians? Jeez?
You couldn't make this shit up
Did anyone think to ask them what they thought?
This 2020 nonsenselist is so blatantly Racist
Here, get this
They just don't want the Mexicans and
There's no mention of jews
I Guess I'll mark myself as English
Make it easy for you to just dismiss
Any heritage any lineage
That you are so desperate to cling to
I've filled in the names and ages
But i still got 3 empty pages
Of white boxes
And i really haven't got a clue
I guess if my accent is English
Then my kids must be English
So how come my wife is still a jew?
Her kids are now English
Her husband is only English
She's got a pen in her hand
Oh my what's jewish girl to do?
But I almost forgot why I started this rant
Forgot what this 2020 nonsenselist is really about
No need to worry protest or shout
They don’t want any
Of us
Because
We’re just similar
enough
They just don’t want the Mexicans
The Hispanics or the Latin ones
They work way too hard
They have too much fun
But they’re small so you can fit
More of them in a pit
Of all of our shit
And pay them a pitance
To clean it all up
A white skinned red haired irish girl - English
A sallow skinned jewish asian boy- English
A sometimes brown in the summertime
Paler in the winter time jewish wife - Fuck it! English
Keep your head down
Forget you were once brown
Wouldn't life be easier in black and white?

There’s a mouse in the house of the Lord
Armed with a cheese grater and a bloody sword
Six legs, 3 eyes
He eats camembert he eats pussy cat pie
He’s got a seat at the head of the table
God just stood up and walked away
Shaking his head
Saying “how did it come to this?
The rats are going to be pissed
And who’s going to put the holes in the Swiss?
What a mess
How did it come to this?”

Dr Trumps PhD-ream
01:38
|
|||
Me and my son who is 16 years old
Just happened to be listening to Neil Young
Today
This very morning
And there was the warning
From what? 40, maybe 45 years ago
The needle and the damage done
And he was just talking about heroin
Not the really lethal shit
Household cleaners lysol, bleach
Whatever you've got - whatevers within reach
Just grab Whatever is under the kitchen sink
But the AIDs junkies in the 80s
already ran those tests
And God knows those tests were not the best
I guess HIV wasn't instantly lethal enough -
So they reached for real fast acting stuff
Kills over 99% of germs DEAD! And it's true
It said on the bottle
Its was on TV
But it never said it could cure HIV
Its past noon Now and i've caught up with the feed on my screen
Seems that Trump is now finally making good use of his PhD-ream
He's always been a fan of the the big big lights
And his uncle was smart so we will be alright
Don't worry America you can sleep tight tonight
The cure came to him right there on the podium
Live on TV we all saw him
He just open his trap and that was that
UV lights, needles, lysol and bleach
Who knew the solution was just within reach?
Fauci should had just consulted the housewife's handbook
Saved us all a few billion bucks
Come on, come on open it up,
Come on, let's take a look
No not that page that's for cleaning pans
And that page shows you how to hide your head in the sand
You thought for sure
The cure
For cancer would be right in front of you
Oh, it's probably in Volume 2
Anyway just turn on the big lights
Go lie in the sun
We've got needles to buy
There's much more damage to be done.
