Lyrics
You can’t shoot a bald eagle
Even if it kills
Even if it takes away your rights
And vetoes all your bills
You’re a fish swimming upstream
One day it grabs you by the gills
But the eagle’s who you voted for
So I guess you’re winning still
Uncle Sam is still an uncle
Even if he’s deemed unfit
Even if the upstairs neighbors
Say keep him away from the kids
Someone ask the Founding Fathers—
Whose brother is this?
I went to one of his parties
And it was full of idiots
And you cannot lead a protest
No matter what they say
Unless you storm the Capitol
The week of New Year’s Day
But if you sing “Don’t bomb the children
6,000 miles away”
They’ll say you hate your country
And your welcome’s overstayed
Well, you can’t shoot a bald eagle
It’s against the law
And nobody’s above that yet
But check back again in the fall
Laugh so we don’t cry
And cry ‘cause empathy’s no flaw
If the fish all stick together
We don’t fit in the eagle’s claw
