Paul Barker - Ballad of Marshall Ledbetter lyrics

Six-hundred sixty-six Dunkin' Donuts A twenty-inch veggie pizza from Gumby's Extra jalapeños on the side And a case of Asahi Dry I wish to speak with Timothy Leary Lemmy, Jello, and Ice Cube, too Carton of Lucky's with filters And bring a CNN news crew Tallaha**ee, Florida 4 AM, June 14th, '91 Capitol building's occupied Broke the gla**, walked right inside Wouldn't be advisable to enter You don't know the number of hostiles Or if anyone's got guns Or if there's hostages I just want to Speak my mind More for you than Just one soundbite [?] cop and Info Man have something to say This whole world is disturbing me I want to cut a rap record each month And mail my little pinky to George Bush Sharpshooters on surrounding roofs Traffic blocked off by SWAT troops Evacuate the people inside Pretend we're CNN, say Leary's died I just want to Speak my mind More to you than Just one soundbite 2:45, he emerged unharmed JD in one hand, in the other, cigar Hendrix T-shirt and his underwear on Guess what? He never had no gun Where are my friends? Where are you? Where are you? I can't believe it's come to this I only broadcast my freakout to the world I was a prisoner for twenty-two years When I broke through that door, I was free Not to mention pretty damn lucky Nowadays, boy, you'd just get shot
