lyrics

The stakes are higher then they’ve ever been
Go and cast that stone if you’ve got no sin

Once again there are choices
Tho you think they don’t exist
one choice is a hand that’s trying to help’
the other’s a fascist fist
the other’s a fascist fist

before you rail against some little imperfection
the other one tried to steal the election

not too many dots to connect
you don’t have to be conspiratorial
one believes in democracy
the other is dictatorial
