about

I wrote this song after the travesty that occurred in DC on June 1, 2020. Watching peaceful protesters get gassed so the President could pose with an upside down bible really pissed me off and, after this recent storming of the Capitol, I decided to release it to raise money for charity.

ALL proceeds from this song will be donated to Feeding America. (They provide funds to food banks to help people who are struggling, which Is crucial during the pandemic.

lyrics

Nero tweeted while Rome burned
A bunker and fences kept him safe
He gassed a preacher for good measure
Before posing with a book he’d never read
And threatened to pummel civilians
Into submission with military might


Law and order
For civil disorder
Dominate the streets
Protect men in sheets,
Riot gear, and tanks
Law and order
Is not for the weak


Non-lethal projectiles loosed on
Both press and protester alike
Pepper balls, flashbangs, batons
And tanks: doling out democracy
As only a real man could
Unification through fear



Law and order
For civil disorder
Dominate the streets
Protect men in sheets,
Riot gear, and tanks
Law and order
It's not for the weak
