(MOTHERS) UP AGAINST THE WALL

(c) by Stevenn Beck

people who make up their own rules
those who won't fund cops or schools
or anybody who breaks the law
leaders who can't keep it in their pants
keep asking for a second chance
(mothers) up against the wall

those out there who push fear and hate
or anyone who likes to denigrate
I've got no use for you at all
those who claim to love this nation
just not most of the population
(mothers) up against the wall

corporations who cut corners
taking bailout cash and then run
elected officials stealing public money
while the rest of us just gets crumbs

all the parents who hit their kids
damaging the most innocent
they disgust me most of all
people who curse at every line
or those who text away their time
(mothers) up against the wall

candidates who won't discuss the issues
seeking election on their charm
pandering to fat cats and losers
and only the wealthy can run

people who decide how the rest should live
just because they say we've sinned
don't you think they have a lot of balls
those who vote to withhold relief
but take their share when they're in need
(mothers) up against the wall

civil servants who prey on fear
ballplayers who are millionaires
too lazy to even run out a ground ball
hippies getting rich on real estate
and anyone too cheap to keep us safe
(mothers) up against the wall
(mothers) up against the wall
