lyrics

Verse 1:
Dear Mr. President, please take a seat,
I'm so happy that you finally agreed to meet.
I and all the people here in this room,
Are pleased to be the instrument of your doom.

March down to the wall and we'll take a stone,
And we'll wall up the bastard inside his home.
Burn down their towers and bury their thrones,
And we'll break from the America we've always known.

Chorus 1:
And as we rise you'll see,
That you can't make a whore of lady liberty.
And all her people know,
That you're just a big bully with a fancy bow.

Verse 2:
On the capitol lawn, we'll hold hands and sing,
All of the puppets cut from their strings.
From a rope, they'll hang from an old oak tree,
And we'll make them dance a new deadly jig.

Up from the Senate from the lawn we'll sneak,
With dirty deeds in our heads, and quiet feet.
Lock the door from the outside and throw away the keys,
And burn the traitors down with kerosene.

Chorus 2:
And when it burns you'll see,
That we won't be fooled again by your trickery.
'Cause fool me once shame on me,
But fool me twice and shamed you'll be.

Unbearable
by Paul Baribeau

Baribeau is so honest and open on this record, it's almost too painful to listen too. The man bares his soul, and it's a touching and honest look at life, love, & what we all are doing here. Trashbag Ponchos

Should Have Been A Toby Keith
by Not Ben Shin

Not Ben Shin is short, sweet, and to the point. But this short collection of songs is one that is memorable and personable. Trashbag Ponchos

This City Isn't Big Enough
by Apes of the State

Apes of the State is everything right about folk-punk. Angsty, gritty, deeply engaging, and about personal and societal growth. April Hartman shows she's top of the writing game on this charming album Trashbag Ponchos
