From the recording You're Welcome, With Love
Lyrics
No Subversives On My Block!
Ý Me and my wife / Built ourselves a fine wood deck / Where we drink light beer and talk politics / With kids on the way / There’s no room in this world today / I want segregation for the taxes I pay ◭ The world keeps closing in / Tighter, tighter / There’s an undesirable around every corner / Trying to infiltrate us ⧩Ü The neighbors drop by / We do our best to act our worst / We practice riots, but no one gets hurt / In charcoal’s glow / Like flies upon a pile of shit / We’re so happy here, it’d make you sick ◭⧩ ◢ There’s an uptown / There’s a downtown / Hey you, get off of my block, subversive / No subversives on my block! / No subversives on my block! ◣ Last year, crisis hit / A man thought he would paint his house / By his own specification / Now his wife and son are under police investigation ◢ ◣ There’s an uptown / There’s a downtown / Hey you, get off of my block, subversive ÝÜ ◢ ◣ ■
