lyrics
Guns and Boobs
I don’t care about Russia,
Or how Stalin and Lenin
Became the ambassadors
For bad Communism.
Don’t care how a system meant
To keep the workin’ people fed
Ended up with those workin’ folks
And so many others dead, I just want the
Guns and boobs!
Guns and boobs!
All I want are the guns and boobs!
Can’t be entertained without the
Guns and boobs!
Guns and boobs!
Guns and boobs!
Don’t wanna talk about the CIA
Or Operation Condor.
And how they forced false confessions
With torture.
Don’t wanna hear about Somoza
And those fighting Sandinistas,
Just wanna spend my time with empty-minded
Squares and fashionistas, and I just want the
Guns and boobs!
Guns and boobs!
All I want are the guns and boobs!
Can’t be entertained without the guns and boobs!
Guns and boobs!
Guns and boobs!
Don’t wanna learn about the doctrines
Of those that we’ve elected,
And find out how repression then and now
Are all connected.
Only sex and violence
Can be the main attraction.
Somebody must’ve learned the formula
For apathy and distraction, cus I just want the
Guns and boobs!
Guns and boobs!
All I want are the guns and boobs!
Can’t be entertained without the
Guns and boobs!
Guns and boobs!
Guns and boobs!
Truman’s CIA remorse
Agreements made with use of force.
National security
Imposin’ it’s authority.
FBI tappin’ our phones,
Killin’ kids with bombs and drones.
Misbehavin,’ truth evadin’
Overthrowin’ and invadin’
Operation, occupation,
Classified documentation.
All that seems like boring news,
Gimme gimme guns and boobs.
Guns and boobs!
Guns and boobs!
All I want are the guns and boobs!
Can’t be entertained without the
Guns and boobs!
Guns and boobs!
Guns and boobs!
