lyrics

There's rednecks at the gate
There's brownshirts in the street
My mom is getting gassed
My dad is getting beat
I'll never go outside
I'll never leave the house
Got everything I need
Just got to hunker down
So keep on moving to the left
Keep on hiding in the house
Keep on keeping them safe
And keep on keeping it fed
Keep on raising your hand\
And keep on trying to care
Keep on keeping it sane
And keep on grasping at straws
What if I got the cancer
What if I had a heart attack
What if I had a stroke
And what if my mind was never coming back
Tell me babe, how could I love you then?
We will make it through alive
None of us are gonna die
WE. WILL. MAKE. IT. THROUGH. ALIVE.
NONE. OF. US. ARE. GONNA. DIE.
Keep on saying my prayers
And keep on calling my folks
And keep on telling everyone
I love them like crazy
What if an active shooter
Went to the store same days as me
What if I got arrested
What if they through away the key
What'll they do if they tear us away
What if I caught the COVID
What if my blood it turned to gel
What if I crashed the car
And what if I died and went to hell
What'll I do if I never see you again?
Bad things that could happen.
