I cried when they shot Trayvon Martin
Tears ran down my spine
And I wept when they choked Eric Garner
Like I lost a father of mine
But this kid Michael Brown had it coming
They filmed him committing a crime
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
I sign every Planned Parenthood petition
The right to choose should be preserved
And I cheered when they sentenced Daniel Holtzclaw
A woman's autonomy's hers
But I don't think you can rape a stripper
That whore got what she deserved
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
I believe in the right to get married
Wherever a true love exists
And I'm here for your right of adoption
As long as you parent your kids
And I'm down with your gender expression
Just not while I'm taking a piss
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
I'm concerned about carbon emissions
Go to marches when I'm in the mood
And I'm worried about monoculture
So that's why I shop at Whole Foods
But these climate goals seem so expensive
And what would they really improve?
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
I watch interviews of Malala
Her bravery makes me feel strong
And refugees should get asylum
As long as they don't stay too long
But this man on my flight's speech is foreign
And I think I just heard him say "bomb"
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
I like reading quotes from Assata
The Panthers put on quite a show
And I like to decolonize my thinking
By reading Derrida and Foulcault
And I like when you say "revolution"
But Bernie's as far as I'll go
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
I vote for the school district budget
I believe in investing in kids
And I donate to the local soup kitchen
Because a citizen's duty's to give
But stealing from Wal-Mart's illegal
That's why I'm calling the pigs
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
I'm a fan of the civil rights movement
I love reading "I Have a Dream"
I supported the Baltimore protests
Til police showed up on the scene
But Gaza is firing rockets
Even if the response is extreme
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
I agree we should make reparations
The government should make amends
And I'm not really one eighth Apache
Though sometimes I like to pretend
But this guy Trump has some good ideas
Even if he does offend
So love me, love me, love me
Love me, love me, love me
Love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
