This is an open-mic rendition of my latest song, "Line 'Em Up".

Thoughts and prayers and a round of hallelujah
after every massacre; they figure that oughta do ya.
Pious inaction's all we get from these clowns.
Let's line 'em up and knock 'em down.

Line 'em up, and knock 'em down....

They inform you your claim is denied,
at least as long as you're still alive.
Won't even cover your hospital gown.
Let's line 'em up and knock 'em down.

Line 'em up, and knock 'em down....

They say we can't afford to care
for the water or the land or the air.
They say there ain't enough to go around.
I say line 'em up and knock 'em down, hey!

They insist they're trickling their riches
on us, but I smell piss; yeah, them sons-a-bitches
are betting we'll swallow it, choke, and drown.
Let's line 'em up and knock 'em down.

Line 'em up, and knock 'em down....

The boogie man's coming to get us, they say.
They got us pointing fingers every which way, and
they got us fighting on the wrong battleground.
Let's line 'em up and knock 'em down.

Line 'em up, and knock 'em down....
