Killing Spree (for Democracy) by Adam Stanley, lyrics written 2006-2008
[some lyrics recorded differently than originally written]

The president is gonna take a nap
The president is gonna take a crap

They've done it once and they'll do it more
But they won't tell you just what it's for and they'll
tell you that it's to keep you free
But it's a killing spree for democracy

The president is gonna give a speach
The president that needs to be impeached

They spend your money on guns and war
To feed the rich and to kill the poor and they'll
Tell you that it's to keep you free
But it's a killing spree for democracy

Tell me how we'll clean the blood
Tell me how we'll clean the blood
Tell me how we'll clean the blood
Tell me how we'll clean the blood

The president is pickin' up the phone
The president is takin' out a loan

They [spend you money on foreign states]
And lobbyists take them out on dates and they'll
Tell you that it's to keep you free
But it's a killing spree for democracy

Tell me how we'll clean the blood
Tell me how we'll clean the blood
Tell me how we'll clean the blood
Tell me how we'll clean the blood

The president is gonna take a nap
The president is gonna take a crap

They've done it once and they'll do it more
But they won't tell you just what it's for and they'll
tell you that it's to keep you free
But it's a killing spree for democracy

Tell me how we'll clean the blood
Tell me how we'll clean the blood
Tell me how we'll clean the blood
Tell me how we'll clean the blood
