Well a 14 million dollar load is all you really need To get a business going on your own If you were as smart as me you'd ask your papi please For a 14 Million Dollar Loan A 14 million dollar loan That's all it takes to set out on your own Treat people worse than dogs, who cares they're all just pawns And morons might mistake you for a god Well a 14 million dollar loan is all pops gave to me And when he died he left a fortune If he's looking down on me I know he's glad to see I'm no longer just some asshole on T.V. A 14 million dollar loan That's all it takes to set out on your own Treat people worse than dogs, who cares they're all just pawns And morons might mistake you for a god A 14 million dollar loan That's all it takes to set out on your own Treat people worse than dogs, who cares they're all just slobs And morons might mistake you for a god

Thinkin' 'bout people livin' on the street Thinkin' 'bout billionaires that they shouldn't be Too many families struggle just to eat While the rich get fat because they bought D.C. Isn't it a wonder we don't organize? Sharpen up our pitchforks raise our torches high When we've got the right to a better life Come on friend it begins with you and I It's 'bout time we removed the chaff Let's break the backs for once of the ruling class This faux-democracy's run out of gas Maybe the working man finally gets a laugh Isn't it amazing we don't raze the town? When all they offer us is a trickle down The French had a way to remove a crown Come on friends it begins now Isn't a wonder how we're pacified? Taught to love the rich because what's mine is mine As if billionaires would be on our side Come on friends it begins tonight

Well my grandfather back during the war Flew in a B-17 bombing Dresden's poor From the burning scores how many were goons? Firebombing civilians, Kurt Vonnegut too It ain't easy lord shakin' off the fascist blues When I came of age wanted to vote for change Thought John Kerry might save friends from an early grave But Bush's wars lasted a decade more and longer So a few of my friends became means to no end It ain't easy lord shakin' off the fascist blues In 2016 seems like hate's still a thing Got a clown runnin' for Prez who's a race-baiting tool Stirrin' up the fear in the minds of fools Disrespect everyone they'll make you president too And it ain't easy lord, shakin' off the fascist blues...
