Baby, I'm an Anarchist!

Lyrics

Through the best of times, through the worst of times
 Through Nixon and through Bush
 Do you remember '36, we went our separate ways
 You fought for Stalin, I fought for freedom
 You believe in authority, I believe in myself
 I'm a molotov cocktail, you're Dom Perignon
 Baby, what's that confused look in your eyes?
 What I'm trying to say is that
 I burn down buildings while you sit on a shelf inside of them
 You call the cops on the looters and pie throwers
 They call it class war
 I call them co-conspirators
 
 ♪
 Cause baby, I'm an anarchist and you're a spineless liberal
 We marched together for the eight-hour day and held hands in the streets of Seattle
 But when it came time to throw bricks through that Starbucks window
 You left me all alone, all alone
 ♪
 You watched in awe at the red, white and blue
 On the Fourth of July
 While those fireworks were exploding
 I was burning that fucker and stringing my black flag high
 Eating the peanuts that the parties have tossed you
 In the back seat of your father's new Ford
 You believe in the ballot, you believe in reform
 You have faith in the elephant and jackass and to you solidarity's a four-letter word
 We're all hypocrites, but you're a patriot
 You thought I was only joking when I was screaming kill whitey at the top of my lungs
 At the cops in their cars and the men in their suits
 No, I won't take your hand and marry the state
 Cause baby, I'm an anarchist and you're a spineless liberal
 We marched together for the eight-hour day and held hands in the streets of Seattle
 But when it came time to throw bricks through that Starbucks window
 You left me all alone, all alone
 
 Through the best of times, through the worst of times
 Through Nixon and through Bush
 Do you remember '36, we went our separate ways
 You fought for Stalin, I fought for freedom
 You believe in authority, I believe in myself
 I'm a molotov cocktail, you're Dom Perignon
 Baby, what's that confused look in your eyes?
 What I'm trying to say is that
 I burn down buildings while you sit on a shelf inside of them
 You call the cops on the looters and pie throwers
 They call it class war
 I call them co-conspirators
