Ok, I don’t really have much for the saying right now in the way of a post, just a Supreme Court thing (though I did work “bereft” into the lyrics … I know, I’m good that way).

We don’t know why you livin’ like ya do
G O P can – help you un-blue
We stole two seats now to leave you bereft
Of any hope of what – fair was left
And we wanna know – and we’ll – tell you
Progress stops right here
—
We’ll take it to the SCOTUS
A court beholden to us
We’ll take it all to SCOTUS
Partis’n arm we made thus
To lead it around
Backwards where we’ll be found
—
The extremists are not on the left
That’s just cry rally we’ve always kept
No radical court – it’ s square to the right
They hem and haw but it’s in plain sight
Want you to know, can’t you – see how
We lead them by the haaaaand
—
Take it to the SCOTUS
A court beholden to us
We’ll take it all to SCOTUS
Partis’n arm we made thus
To drag your rights down
Backwards where we’ll be ….
—
Crosshairs, dazed stares, we don’t care, what you want here
Till we can’t,
Till we can’t,
Hold our glee at
Our own court’s red de-crees now
—
It’s a court beholden to us
We’ll take it all to SCOTUS
Partis’n arm we made thus
To lead it around
Backwards where we’ll be found

break
—
We don’t know why you’re stewing like ya do
Bout all the rights – next in the queue
To be struck down now – with radical hand
Voting women equal they don’t stand a chance
—
Want you to know now
That your rights now
Are up to Uuuuusssss
—
We’ll take it to the SCOTUS
A court beholden to us
We’ll take it all to SCOTUS
Partis’n arm we made thus
To lead it around
Backwards where we’ll be found
—
We’ll take it, we’ll take it, we’ll take it to the SCOTUS
They’re all ours now and we’re gonna have them show us
We’ll take it, we’ll take it, we’ll take it to the SCOTUS
You’re gonna regret that you didn’t vote for us
We’ll take it, we’ll take it, we’ll take it to the SCOTUS
We own them now and they’re gonna send us backwards fast
