No Capo
I cried on September 11th
Tear ran down my spine
Like I cry for each murdered Iraqi
As though I ve lost a neighbor of mine
But Afghanistan got what was coming
It was the right thing to do at the time
So love me, love me, love me, I m a liberal
And I go to the anti-war rallies
Curse George and the whole G.O.P.
And I can t get enough of Obama
Oh his message of change speaks to me
But sure Nader s right about most thing
But he cost Gore that election, you see
So love me, love me, love me, I m a liberal
And I ve bristled the rage through Katrina
The response made me sick to my heart
I m sure FEMA would ve come running
Had it flooded rich whites in Cape Cod
But don t talk about revolution
Cause that s going just a little bit too far
So love me, love me, love me, I m a liberal
Yes I vote for the Democratic Party
I figure soon enough they ll come along
And I attended those vote for change concert
And they sure got me singing those songs
And I m bothered about corporate government
But I do want our brand to trade strong
So love me, love me, love me I m a liberal
Yes I read the New Yorker and Nation
And I ve learned to take every view
And I idolized Franklin and Stewart
Hell I feel like I m almost a Jew
But when it comes down to globalized markets
Well there s no one more red, white, and blue
So love me, love me, love me, I m a liberal
And sure once I was young and impulsive
I wore every conceivable pin
Even went to some socialist meetings
Yeah I learned all the old union hymns
But oh I ve grown older and wiser
and that s why I m turning you in
So love me, love me, love me, I m a liberal
There are alot of verses and the chords remain the same. It gets softer on the last
but thats about it.
