It’s Not New

To the tune of “She’s Got You”

They talk about victims ground down under heel.

In our country’s system, they just get a raw deal.

It’s a blueprint for tyranny, of rule by a few.

We heard this in Russia. It’s not new.

In the Marxist dialectic, it’s all about class.

Now they’ve refined it and applied it to race.

They’d make way for despots, of rule by a few.

They’ve tried it in Cuba. It’s not new.

Now they call it “critical race the-o-ry,”

And if they have their way, it’s bye bye liberty.

They’re now pushing this claptrap on much younger kids,

And if parents resist it, they’ll call in the feds.

It’s a blueprint for tyranny, of rule by a few.

It’s nothing but Marxism. It’s not new.

Now they call it “critical race the-o-ry,”

And if they have their way, it’s bye bye liberty.

They’re now pushing this claptrap on much younger kids,

And if parents resist it, they’ll call in the feds.

It’s a blueprint for tyranny, of rule by a few.

It’s nothing but Marxism. It’s not new.
