INSURRECTION SONG JANUARY 6

Let us all remember the day in ‘21
The 6th of January when the deadly deed was done
Oh, they charged right up the hallowed steps and busted down the doors
They were shoving past and breaking glass and spittin’ on the floors

It was an insurrection, so patriots must stand.
And heed the call for justice and let leniency be damned
Cause freedom’s just another word for all there we have to lose
Let the sonsabitches rot in jail for what they tried to do

A violent mob of QAnon, ProudBoys and Boogaloos
Just fascists, thugs and racists, a band of angry fools
They were chanting words of treason, waving flags that bore the name
Of the lyin’ lame-duck loser, the one who stoked the flame

It was an insurrection, so patriots must stand
And heed the call for justice and let leniency be damned
Cause freedom’s just another word for all we have to lose
Let the sonsabitches rot in jail for what they tried to do

So, when you hear their cry for unity while questioning the facts
Remember its bad faith and lies that led them to attack
On that darkened day in history Let it not be forgot that
A COUP’S A COUP, NOT MATTER WHO has planned the evil plot

It was an insurrection so patriots must stand
And heed the call for justice and let leniency be damned
Cause freedom’s just another word for all we have to lose
Let the sonsabitches rot in jail what they tried to do

Cause freedom’s just another word for all we have to lose
Let the sonsabitches rot in jail what they tried to do.

Let the sonsabitches rot in jail for what they tried to do.
