Gimme an “F”! (F!)
\nGimme a “U”! (U!)
\nGimme an “E”! (E!)
\nGimme an “L”! (L!)
\nwhats that spell? (FUEL!)
\nwhats that spell? (FUEL!)
\nwhats that spell? (FUEL!)
\nwhats that spell? (FUEL!)\n<\/p>\n
Pour your Starbucks coffee down the drain,
\nUncle Sam is in Iraq again.
\nIt’s all about the oil flow,
\nWere just anarchists with no place to go.
\nSo put down your books and pick up a sign,
\nShouting and chanting to us is just fine.\n<\/p>\n
And it’s one, two, three,
\nWhat are we protesting for?
\nDon’t ask me, I don’t have a clue,
\nNext stop is a city near you;
\nAnd it’s five, six, seven,
\nOpen up the city gates,
\nWell there ain’t no time to wonder why,
\nWhoopee! we hold our signs up high.<\/p>\n
Well, come on slackers, let’s move fast;
\nYour big chance has come at last.
\nGotta go out and wear hippie threads
\nBush and Cheney we all dread
\nDon’ ask us why we didn’t protest Clinton,
\nJust bashing Bush is much more fun.<\/p>\n
And it’s one, two, three,
\nWhat are we protesting for?
\nDon’t ask me, I don’t have a clue,
\nNext stop is a city near you;
\nAnd it’s five, six, seven,
\nOpen up the city gates,
\nWell there ain’t no time to wonder why,
\nWhoopee! we hold our signs up high.<\/p>\n
Huh! <\/p>\n
Well, come on Berkeley, don’t move slow,
\nWhy man, there’s a march au-go-go.
\nWe hate those soldiers about to invade
\nBut we praise the one who tossed that grenade
\nWe use every persuasive and intelligent argument
\nLike staging a Die-in laying on the pavement.<\/p>\n
And it’s one, two, three,
\nWhat are we protesting for?
\nDon’t ask me, I don’t have a clue,
\nNext stop is a city near you;
\nAnd it’s five, six, seven,
\nOpen up the city gates,
\nWell there ain’t no time to wonder why,
\nWhoopee! we hold our signs up high.<\/p>\n
Well, come on mothers it’s about oil you see,
\nDrive them to the march in your SUV
\nCome on fathers, don’t hesitate,
\nBush and Hitler go ahead and equate
\nSpreading peace by the traffic we block
\nAnother mindless sheep in the flock\n<\/p>\n
And it’s one, two, three,
\nWhat are we protesting for?
\nDon’t ask me, I don’t have a clue,
\nNext stop is a city near you;
\nAnd it’s five, six, seven,
\nOpen up the city gates,
\nWell there ain’t no time to wonder why,
\nWhoopee! we hold our signs up high.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
