The War Museum Blues
1993
look out, look out, look out, look out
look out when you're up against people
who ain't got much more to lose
big pow-wow, little big horn
look out, watch your back
when you back people who ain't got much more to lose into a corner
the calvary blundered
despite TONS of arrogance
they were way out numbered
ran like hell
died on a hill
clutching money in their hands
ma ma ma ma ma ma montana
the cops sure got their ass kicked here!
big horn, little man
little man, big stick
dead uniform in the glory battlefield loser museum
jingo-junkie visitors gotta comment on how small the man was
sure is a glorious place alright...
how dare the indigenous insist they know best on how they should exist!
send in cops
clear the way for greed
but watch your back when you're up against people
with nothing much left to lose!
ma ma ma ma ma ma montana
the cops sure got their ass kicked here!
the cops work for whoever pays them
the economic elite pays them
with your money
and * aren't we all too ready for neglect, prison, and
police action against a population that we've been
conned into perceiving as disloyal to our interest?
you don't believe that hype do you - that
custer's calvary died in glory?
just a bunch of cops who fucked up
government wiping out culture for profit
got held up for a couple of days
in the furry little big horn hills of
ma ma ma ma ma ma montana
the cops sure got their ass kicked!
