Loaded Gun

Who's the enemy?

You're gonna point your gun at GI Joe

Well your Grandpa broke the strikes and your dad the civil rights

When they were 18 too

Kent State, you never had a clean slate

I didn't see watts burn but I felt the embers

Pinkerton mobs, national guard

Change the names, but someone remembers

I passed out flowers in the park (Loaded gun)

I spent my money in the market (Loaded gun)

Running rebels reading Marx (Loaded gun)

How droll! Armalite ballot!

There's dollars in Bahrain (Loaded gun)

But there's rust in the gas can (Loaded gun)

Bombs for petrol? (Loaded gun)

No! Petrol for bombs

They've got a file on you, friend, and it's none of your business

Community policing paying dividends

East Oakland is a no-go

But the liquor store is Cointelpro

Peacekeeping missions in police warzone

With a turbulent Dow Jones

If violence is a state monopoly

Then think of us as antitrust

The CIA is in Oakland (Loaded gun)

Rewriting the constitution (Loaded gun)

Looking at a firebrand through the eyes of a loaded gun
