about

“A song about personal demons, political madness and the love of guns.”

lyrics

You made me feel small so let's pretend
I’m a God of power you can’t comprehend
Lock the door and take your seat here
You should have seen me, you should have been my friend

Take the roll call count off one by one
Who's the teacher? Who’s got the gun
Grand Theft Auto, Call of Duty
It’s entertaining when everybody runs

Tick, tock…
Load, lock…
Laughingstock
No not I

Hark the bell tolls… now the main event
A brand new lesson, I don't need your consent
Semiautomatic loopholes
Pencils down now… time to pay the rent

Cry it out
Say goodbye now
Cry it out
Bye bye

Shadows where you used to be
Can you count up to 23?
I hear the sirens closing in on me

My child… where's my child... bring back mine
It’s a right that we're defending… It’s a right that we're defending
Freedom that is never ending… freedom that is never ending
Psychonation… Psychonation

Famous now, on TV
Maimed or martyred - guess will see
This year, you'll get 10 more just like me

And the nation carries on carefree
Another day and another spree
Sing it out "My country, tis of thee"
