Marcus Lyrics

Marcus built a campfire

And that campfire stood tall

It got kinda scary

And he thought "who should I call?"

Do I call the fire department

Will they put it out

Should I call the ranger

Or will they just come and shout

'Cause there's cowboys on acid

And there's acid on cowboys

Marcus heard someone a creepin'

Outside his front door

He had some friends over

So he wasn't really sure

Do I call my father

Will he be upset

Will he call the police

And will they come shoot my friends

Life's a crippled quandary

No one can ever be sure

Do they love the money

Or do they just hate the poor

Do they love the money

Or do they just hate the poor

'Cause there's cowboys on acid

And there's acid on cowboys

Them's just the facts kid

Flip the switch and self destroy

'Cause people are crying and people are dying

'Cause people can't get enough food

And renaissance comes after the revolution

You'd better be here for that too

Don't let this die in you

Don't let this die in you

Marcus went to protests against

Threats in his friends' lives

It was kinda shocking

But it came as no surprise

When the police started shootin'

Rubber bullets at the crowds

And they sprayed their liquid warfare

Down our throats and in our mouths

Life's a crippled quandary

No one can ever be sure

Do they love the money

Or do they just hate the poor

Do they love the money

Or do they just hate the poor

Oh there's cowboys on acid

And there's acid on cowboys

Them's just the facts kid

Flip the switch and self destroy

Oh
