First they came for Islamist and then for the anarchist
But when they come for me there'll be none to set me free
Cause I won't have any of this facade of the patriot
And for that they'll know down my door and call a grand jury

Yeah, behold the new McCarthy
So brave he'll beat your children in the street
So, gather round the book burning to celebrate the right taking
And don't you say a word or they'll call you a commie

Black clothes and a computer make me the next hijacker
So, lock up all your children or I'll rape them mentally
Yeah, I'm the new criminal, my crime not eating animals
And for that they'll knock down my door and slap the death penalty

Yeah, behold the new McCarthy
So brave he finds red doors on every street
So, turn in all your parents for not being so heaven sent
Cause we all know that having thought means you host a hanging

Oh, shit, they found my literature, some Marx for my ligature
In school, I read the Crucible, next they'll burn me at the stake
Well, I once read, "We, the people," but I'm not under their steeple
And for they'll knock down my door for the black list they will make

Yeah, behold the new McCarthy
So brave he'll watch you when you sleep
So, give up all you freedoms so the enemy has no kingdom
Cause we know toppling tyrannies means your rights we must take
So, give up all you freedoms so the enemy has no kingdom
Cause we know toppling tyrannies means your rights we must take
