A folk ditty about inadvertent white nationalists

1/31/2017

1 Comment

 
I got to thinking, how many people are unaware that they're actually white nationalists? How many people are ignorant of the fact that they're white supremacists? Like, they tell us to "get over it" and whatnot and have zero heart or mind for the civil rights violations because they don't think it matters. Because they think they are superior/supreme. It goes beyond racism, beyond privilege. So I wrote a song about it. Chords below, if you want to play and sing along! The chords are as easy as living in this fascist dictatorship is hard!
G                G4 (add a C note to your G chord)
How many people are unaware
That’s they’re actually white nationalists?
How many people are ignorant of the fact
That they’re white supremacists?


C                       Am
You voted like David Duke
I’m sorry, man, but that rhymes with it makes me wanna puke
You voted like the KKK
And yeah, that’s not OK, K, K?


G                                   G4 
I hate that even have to sing this song
But holy fuck all the things are going wrong
Unless you’re male and white and straight
You really start to wonder about your fate


C                           Am
In this fascist dictatorship
This flagrant hatership
They’re stopping legal residents at the border
​And America is feeling more like Mordor


G                                                      G4
Though technically Sauron allowed different peoples in
He just killed them immediately but he still didn’t win
1984 is another good book
All the recent doublespeak warrants another look

C                                                    Am
He’s keeping Muslims out and shoring up the borders
Refugees are banned by executive order

G                  G4
It made me cry today
To see marchers protesting at JFK
Who thought I’d agree with John McCain
Or Dick Cheney when they came to say:

C                                 Am

Banning people is against the constitution
But what are you gonna do within the institution?

G                              G4
Hey — What do you say
You rich, influential white men?

I hear you talking but the action is coming
When? When? When?


C                                      Am
I don’t want to live in an only-white nation
But the fact I have to specify that is a troubling confirmation

G                                               G4
That some people seem to be unaware
That’s they’re actually white nationalists
So many people are ignorant of the fact
That they’re white supremacists

G                                G4
Hey — What do you say
You rich, influential white men?

I hear you talking but the action is coming
​When? When? When?

    I insisted on having this kind of school photo taken in first grade and believed the serious face was a capture of my very soul. #soulphotobomb
