We Arrest

Hear Mike Whitney sing it here: https://www.facebook.com/mikewhitneymusic/videos/1303307723085422/

We arrest, we arrest
Anyone who’s oddly dressed —
Put your hands behind your back ’cause you’re about to be oppressed.
You can run but you can’t hide,
And you surely won’t be tried.
At your food bank or your shelter
We will trap you helter-skelter.

In the car! Off to jail!
And we will not give you bail!
We’ll deprive you of the rights you once      possessed!
And when you have applied
For a green card we’re outside
Don’t protest that we arrest who we arrest!

Darker skins or squinty eyes
Look like terrorists and spies
We will track you and attack you and ignore your lawyers’ cries.
No more DACA, no delays!
It’s like back in slavery’s days
We will grab you while you’re sleeping,
Leave your wives and kiddies weeping.

We do sweeps and stops,
Pretend we’re local cops,
And then we warrantlessly make ourselves your guest.
You infest our pure white nest, so we arrest!

We arrest! We arrest
All the people we detest
Then we quetion them for days til they’re distressed and have confessed
Then we send them back to die
With a friendly ‘Bye! Buh-bye!’
Send them back to what they’re fleeing
Is the reason for our being.

Hit them up! Move them out!
In the rain or in a drought
We like to hear those liberals protest!
We’ve got a lot to do
And we’re coming next for you
And we’ll arrest, we’ll arrest, we’ll arrest.

We arrest, we arrest,
We demand we don’t request
In ten years we whites will have the whole damn country repossessed
We will take what we want
While we terrorize and taunt
We don’t care what you are doing
With your damned A C L U-ing

House by house, one by one
We’ll arrest you til we’re done
We’ll sling you out ’cause purity’s our quest
Today you pick our crops
Tonight we send the cops
We arrest we arrest we arrest.
Yeah, we arrest.
