Wall Street, Pay Your Taxes: The Music Video

Wall Street, Pay Your Taxes: The Music Video
Sun, 4/14/2013 - by Carl Gibson

 

LYRICS:

Early in the morning

I rise up in the street

We quit smokin' cigarettes

To have shoes on our feet

We all know the reason

The reason things went wrong

Yeah we all know the reason

Why our money's all gone

They robbed my generation

No one can get by

So listen to our protest

'Fore we mothafuckin' riot

(guitar solo)

Life is too short, we need what we don't got

'Cause we tryin to get over, but there's no good jobs

Workin' part-time but I ain't gettin no rest

Had to come in here so I could get it off my chest

Take a small example

A tip from me

Pay your tax money, don't deduct from charity-dee-dee

It's what you dodge

And you dodge a lot

The taxes that you dodge cost schools and jobs

We'll keep fightin' til we get what we deserve

Try and test that

You bound to get served

Pay what you dodged

It's not that hard

You'll feel us when the streets get hot, hot

CHORUS

Wall Street,

Pay your taxes

Don't censor that

Wall Street,

Pay your taxes

Don't censor that

I don't cry when my dog runs away

I don't get angry at the bills I have to pay

But I get angry at the high rent cost

Or if I ever get laid off from the boss

Bankers, robbers

They're all the same

They don't pay their taxes

'Cause they all rigged the game

Let some of that tax money come back to me

Wall Street,

Pay your taxes

Don't censor that

Wall Street,

Pay Your taxes

Don't censor that

(REPEAT)

Journalists have a responsibility to plainly tell the truth about how truly different the Democrats and the Republicans are today, especially with both democracy and the rule of law at stake this November.

From Hungary and Poland to Italy and Spain, today's anti-abortionist movements are feeding one another—while also driving a growing counter-movement.

Agriculture, the service economy, sexual exploitation, manufacturing, construction and domestic work drive today's enslavement around the world.

Thanks to the Electoral College, leftists have perhaps the final say this November over whether democracy can hold on for at least another four years, or if fascism will take root and infect all facets of the federal government for decades to come.

What remains unknown is whether post-truth Republicans will succeed in 2024 as the Nazis did in 1933.

History shows there are no “one-day” dictatorships. When democracies fall, they typically fall completely.
