A tale of wrong and right
And freedom is the reason

To come and look for you
We're gonna put a stop

2nd verse, prechorus, verse, prechorus, chorus
(uses the same guitar parts):
"Well, I'm startin' up a posse
(fascist scum, fascist scum)
And we'll damn sure make you see
Something that offends you
May not be offensive to me
You fuckin' whores
(you fuckin' whores)
That's all you are
Now you might take offense
To a word like 'fuck' or 'shit'
(dick!)
But you fuckin' don't have the right
(cunt!)
To discriminate me for saying it!
You fuckin' whores
(you fuckin' whores)
That's all you are
Shit, fuck, satan, death, sex, drugs, rape
These seven words you're tryin' to take
Shit, fuck, satan, death, sex, drugs, rape
Right or wrong, it's our choice to make
America the beautiful, land of the free
Don't change the words to land of hypocrisy"

3rd verse, prechorus, verse, prechorus, chorus
(again, the same parts):
"So now I'm startin' up a posse
(motherfucker, motherfuck)
To fight for freedom of choice
To fight for freedom of speech
We're gonna make you hear our voice"

"And now, I don't do this to shock you
(that's the end, that's the end)
I don't do this for spite
You've got the choice, don't buy it, don't read it,
And don't say your opinion's right
You fuckin' whores
(you fuckin' whores)
That's all you are
(cunty, cunty, cunty, cunt)
You know you can't censor my feelings
You can't censor my thoughts
Censorship's against
everything America stands for
You fuckin' whores
(let us decide)
That's all you are
(and this ain't sexist either)
Shit, fuck, satan, death, sex, drugs, rape
These seven words you're trying to take
Shit, fuck, satan, death, sex, drugs rape
Right or wrong, it's our choice to make
America the beautiful, land of the free
Don't change the words to land of hypocrisy"
play the first half of the interlude and repeat the last 1/4 of that
part 4 times... then end on an F...
