Stick Up

Now Tommy's a good father of two sons and a daughter

But he wakes up and he asks himself, "Why even bother?"

If he cannot feed his family, the wage he's paid, it's insanity

Every day he's dealing with a new calamity

Lost his old occupation, but it wasn't immigration

It was a machine, automation that replaced him

Politicians left him, corruption since the recession

So he grabs his Smith and Wesson

Says he'll teach 'em all the lesson like

Get down on the ground

It's a stick up, nobody make a sound

Don't even hiccup or I'm emptying a round

I'm done playing games so I'm going down in flames

Let it rain over Washington

It's a stick up, nobody make a sound

Don't even hiccup or I'm emptying a round

I'm done playing games so I'm going down in flames

Let it rain over Washington

Now first he'd lost his pension, sunk into depression

Congress is defectin', it's been adding to the tension

Came back from war and he's been post-traumatic stressin'

Can't afford his medicine he took for his aggression

He needs help, relying on this system that rejects him

Took away his benefits but left him with his weapon

Bought a one-way ticket, he's entering the thicket

To do the only thing that he's thinking will make a difference like

Get down on the ground

It's a stick up, nobody make a sound

Don't even hiccup or I'm emptying a round

I'm done playing games so I'm going down in flames

Let it rain over Washington

It's a stick up, nobody make a sound

Don't even hiccup or I'm emptying a round

I'm done playing games so I'm going down in flames

Let it rain over Washington

There's a cold wind blowin'

I'm just warnin' and preparin' ya

There's a cold wind blowin'

And it's coming for America

And it's coming for America

And it's coming for America

Get down on the ground

It's a stick up, nobody make a sound

Don't even hiccup or I'm emptying a round

I'm done playing games so I'm going down in flames

Let it rain over Washington

It's a stick up, nobody make a sound

Don't even hiccup or I'm emptying a round

I'm done playing games so I'm going down in flames

Let it rain over Washington
