I can't be bothered To spend three hours to encrypt my phone A three minute start-up Seems to long to wait Three forties three cops At three AM in three hours they'll finish the phone download Now three of my friends Are spending three years upstate Agents of the state I can't be bothered To protect my comrades I can't be bothered To choose a side I can't be bothered So I might as well be I can't be bothered by agents of the state Just like the agents of the state I can't be bothered To wear all black when I show up to the bloc This red bandana Looks to fucking great Now the prosecutor Has a home movie tracking my every move And has a list of comrades I need to implicate Agents of the state I can't be bothered To protect my comrades I can't be bothered To choose a side I can't be bothered So I might as well be I can't be bothered by agents of the state Just like the agents of the state I can't be bothered To build an AG to plan when to throw these hands That will never get me On the news at 8 But spontaneity Doesn't pay deductibles or court fees now my community It redirecting money To my GoFundMe campaign Agents of the state I can't be bothered To protect my comrades I can't be bothered To choose a side I can't be bothered So I might as well be I can't be bothered by agents of the state Just like the agents of the state

When you out on the scene ma I'm losing my mind Sitting down at the breakfast table When will you call Breaking down I'm not capable Of any communication Imagination racing Did you give it away Holler at the halogen overhead light Screaming sideways into the pepper shaker label If you could see me now You'd know that it's not simple I'm a Sisyphean wistful desire magician Gone in love Doomsday scenarios Playing in my periphery Agents of a frustrated investigator Where you at White dots on a blank screen Typing text message Number sixteen sent Do you think that's enough Holler at the halogen overhead light Screaming sideways into the pepper shaker label If you could see me now You'd know that it's not simple I'm a Sisyphean wistful desire magician Gone in love Dream of a dream But it seems that I must be dreaming Dream of a dream

Fires in cop cars and teaching them lessons Holding up precincts with cocked Smith & Wessons Tie em up, tape em up, drag them on strings These are a few of my favorite things Carefully planning a prison uprising Making demands without no compromising Torture the warden until that bird sings These are a few of my favorite things Lumpenprole meetings and making connections People's uprisings turned armed insurrections Autumn encampments that last through the spring These are a few of my favorite things When the dog bites In police stings When I'm feeling sad I just think of a few of my favorite things And then I don't feel so bad

Don't want to be your world Just want to make you feel safe to be vulnerable Erase all your fears and doubts I think you know precisely what you're talking about Talk to you whenever you're able And nurse you back to health when you drink me under the table Give you your way when we're under the covers Have you saying anarchists are better lovers Do my best not to question you Cause you got more to teach me than I probably do Assure you your emotions are valid and real Instead of my advice I'll ask you how you feel Down for anything you wanna try And if you want to stop don't need a reason why Make you beg me please when my penis hovers Have you screaming anarchists are better lovers

Walking down the road with a pistol in each of my hands Diesel engine shot and I'm so far in the outerlands Desert burning hot it's a hundred degrees Sometime after sundown with a whispering breeze They come out Jokers on a roadblock and it looks like I'm in for a fight Mile down the highway is a place that I can stay for the night Tarnished makeshift armor they got hammers and chains Pray my shaking arms and eyelids don't take my aim They come out Only water on me is for the inn at the end of the road Been the currency ever since the trade went to water from gold Gripping weapons tighter as I make the approach Say I don't suppose that you could offer a tow They come out First one started standing took a bullet in the left of his jaw Second dropped her leg down now she won't be writing home to her ma Third one caught a leg wound as he cut out and ran Last two are debating if they still make a stand They come out Sun on the horizon so it must be six or seven o'clock Just a couple hours 'fore the monsters out here running the block Ain't you heard the stories they got talons and fangs Just over my shoulder there's a gunfire bang They come out Convicts in my cargo wanna know what the noise is all about Say I thought I told you no one could see I have you broken out One says yeah we know man but the hold's hot as hell Say which do you prefer the escape route or jail They come out Each of them participated in a simple victimless crime Captive number one shot a sergeant seventeen times Two had the car running as they made the escape Three unloaded all the weapons out of the safe They come out Only thing that guarantees your life here more than water is guns Only legal holders bought their weapons with some government funds So they made a habit out of raiding the pigs Made a prearrangement if they ever get pinched They come out Trodding down the road and now the convicts are back down in the hold Hoping at the inn that somebody that's there can give us a tow Thirty minutes later finally walk into town Tell the innskeep got a tanker one mile down They come out Keeper at the inn is a nonbinary son of a bitch PGP's are they/them if you fuck it up then you're getting hit Intentionally misgender them, then you're getting brained Asks we got a problem, you can tell they were drained They come out Innskeep finds a patron that can transport us if she's getting paid Scar across her face and her hair is in a singular braid Satchel on her hip sways as she walks through the door Says we better hit the road and come back before They come out Pigs in these parts ain't been human since about twenty eighty nine Some genetic engineering introduced species of new kinds Driving down the road I see the sun going down As we hitch the trailer hear the wind start to howl They come out At our two o'clock I see a flying fleet of war eagle bats Shimmy out the window and make my way on down back to the cab Shout to the escapees hey pass me the AK Pigs are flying so I got some devils to slay They come out Hop up on the hood and land a slug right in an eagle bat's snout Second takes a talon shot another gets its wing taken out Burst of feathers as I squeeze the trigger and hold Twelve get dropped and so that's only six more to go They come out One more burst of feathers and a bullet slugged him right in the chest Low on ammo so I gotta make sure that I'm shooting my best Bullet cuts a pair out like two birds with one stone One more goes down now it's just two bats all alone They come out Hit the last two coming then I shuffle my way back in the truck Driver says nice shooting I reply to her that it was my luck Minutes later and we're pulling back to the inn Tell the captives come out it's all over we win They come out

Take the cadre and raise the bight Soldiers dosed on blow brew and northern lights Look at Abubakar he's only fifteen Riding into town with a machine gun Charles Taylor wants some diamonds so we're on the prowl The whole world's obsessed with blue dresses anyhow Load a sack hit you back with loads of AKs Come tomorrow hit the town and see how Foday guns Chopping limbs raping girls man these kids are wild Slitting stomachs betting on the gender of the child Dia says I don't know what revolution means Doesn't matter what else would we do with these guns

Paris is burning a burden to pay The current will seize you for running away The swine over sewers can't take all the blame Because blame falls squarely on the process of shame Delusions of rapture delight in the flame Is all that's required to take to this game A hatred of structure compounds to the pain Of the drip drip mattress that's a victim of rain Hey! Paris is burning what a delight As the sonorous sirens make a pass at the night A cause lost in conflict replaces a rite Of a blasphemed deity forbidden from sight Derisions to power defense of a fight Is a blameless endeavor to the scriptures of might Paris is burning fall of 2005 My car is a chassis so now I can't drive Hey! Paris is burning a bullet to take At the foot of an altar to a lost prophet's wake Machiavelli cries for justice's sake Because the ends justify the cops to burn at the stake Delusions of rapture delight in the flame Is all that's required to take to this game The current will seize you for running away Because blame falls squarely on the process of shame Hey!

When the bosses' sanguination through the city streets does run There can be no power greater than the barrel of a gun And when the bourgeoisie protests expropriate their tongue For the black bloc makes us strong Solidarity forever The fuck we got in common with the greedy parasite Who would kill a union activist to give their cola bite The pigs work for the bosses so get strapped in for a fight For the black bloc makes us strong Solidarity forever It's we who run the weapons plants and fight the wars they wage And who work consumer hotlines from the inside of a cage It's we who sweep the stock exchange where it's our lives they trade But the black bloc makes us strong Solidarity forever All the world that pigs patrol is ours and ours alone All their deeds have the authority of workers' crunching bone But when their city hall explodes, it's we who owned that drone For the black bloc makes us strong Solidarity forever Their dollars are our labor when we overwork they earn But without our brains and muscle there's no treatment for a burn No one to put out mansion fires where charring bodies turn While the black bloc makes us strong Solidarity forever They come pollute our neighborhoods and privatize the grass They exploit our race and gender to divide the working class Because they know united that we'd rise to kick their ass For the black bloc makes us strong Solidarity forever They racketeer, enslave and murder, gas us while we grieve They cut off our public services and raise rent till we leave So we'll burn every yogurt shop until the pigs believe That the black bloc makes us strong Solidarity forever We're told of all the progress that democracy has made But the myth of meritocracy don't match what we get paid There's no hope in a ballot box but on a barricade For the black bloc makes us strong Solidarity forever If you protest a pay cut then you're fired on the spot Then they throw you in a jail cell if you sell all that you got So all sex workers take up arms and take the money shot For the black bloc makes us strong Solidarity forever They tell us job security will come to us with time While our kin retire homeless at the age of 89 With theft and solidarity it's our assembly line For the black bloc makes us strong Solidarity forever

Mostly get my dinners from a garbage can Or a dumpster Sometimes a lumbering biped will give me A taste of what he's got Gotta make a hustle when the sun is shining Gotta show some muscle Cause who's got the food at night time? Need something to eat and you know I'm gonna leave With scratches A dog's life seems quite easy he's just limited to certain Patches of grass Can't cross the street when the lights are red Glad to come to see you But who's got the food at night time? Bootsy caught a bus when he was on his way to us In the forehead O'Malley lost a battle in the alley he was carrying More than his weight All the doors are locked but they build so tall You stashing more they rob you So who's got the food at night time?

I used to think maybe it's coming Now baby I'm sure The bosses can't hide in their mansions When we kick in their doors Now we could try once more to bargain But who has the time So pull down your ski mask baby Let's go do a crime I'm walking on sunshine And don't it feel good I used to think maybe it's coming Now I know it's true There's no one with whom I would rather Smash the state than with you We'll all seize the means of production And all get a say We'll automate ourselves out of labor So we can explore and play I'm walking on sunshine And don't it feel good

Oh Molly 02:21
What a bright face you have In the center of the party Where you light up the place you have Burn for days you have All the ways you have Might be priceless But you'll break just To save my ass Your the most Precious thing that I have Ever held in My life Body made of gasoline Jaw of glass But you're still throwing bows Like a Maccabee Slip in tactfully Just like Vaseline Don't harass the sleeping dragon Or your ass will be the past Your the most Precious thing that I have Ever held in My life And I hope That you see me through this Battle for my home Oh Molly Dancing where the caskets shake In the cemetery buried In the rubble where the ashes quake Make a last mistake Make them draft their fate Make a noise and bring the boys So you can throw them on their ass Your the most Precious thing that I have Ever held in My life And I hope That you see me through this Battle for my home Oh Molly

They gather to gather forever forever They gather to gather forever forever They dance in the dumpsters when they are hungry They gather to gather forever forever They hide in the darkness when the cop car passes Their eyes are so pure and their faces are placid The world on acid They pass round the flask that fills smoke in their lungs This is the diviner's comb They bury the pigs in the blood of their home They bury the pigs in the blood of their home They ride through the desert to find devil's canyon They bury the pigs in the blood of their home They cover their chests in arrests of the masses Their eyes are so pure and their faces are placid The world on acid They bend over backs to put holes in their lungs This is how they creepy crawl
