Fascism Boulevard
Fascism Boulevard: Antibiotics' Anthem Against Systemic Oppression
Lyrics
Yo, I got some shit to say
Expressing the need to communicate important thoughts.
So yesterday, I was walkin' down the street
Describing a recent experience while walking down the street.
And I saw this homeless man begging for cash
Observing a homeless man begging for money and expressing disapproval.
That shit's wack!
Expressing disdain for the situation.
I am an upper middle class citizen
Identifying as an upper-middle-class citizen with financial security.
And my parents pay their taxes
Highlighting the financial responsibility of parents in paying taxes.
So I don't have to see that shit
Expressing a desire to avoid witnessing homelessness due to financial privilege.
Land of the free? More like
Criticizing the notion of the "land of the free."
