lyrics

They get the white folks believing this point of view
That minorities and immigrants get more than they do
They get the poor folk believing they’ll be rich one day
And that evil government’s gonna take it away
It’s the all day all night, uptight alt-right, fake news you lose blues

Climate change is not real they’ve convinced their base
Cause what could NASA know about the earth and space
The oil and gas lobby a smokescreen they’ve erected
The same folks said smoking and cancer not connected
It’s the all day all night, uptight alt-right, fake news you lose blues

They got you convinced you’re gonna need more guns
Causing more school shootings of your daughters and your sons
They use religious teaching to make their case
But the Jesus I read about would laugh in their face
It’s the all day all night, uptight alt-right, fake news you lose blues

That’s the right wing playbook, the Republicans play it well
It’s a sure fire ticket to have all but the rich folks go to hell

They gin us up with fear of the immigrant
But they don’t care ‘bout hacking by the Russian government
House districts gerrymandered, its not just bad luck
If you don’t know what that means, go look it up
It’s the all day all night, uptight alt-right, fake news you lose blues
