Keeping Them Down
by Ben Nardolilli
well, pass this message on
if we hit
someone
someone
will explain how simple
this plan is
if we boycott
we can keep them down,
pass the oil prices back
without hurting ourselves
we can make
a force
by now
you’re probably thinking
you’re tired of me
on our cars, acting
together
which now are one
keep reading down
some intelligent united
impact awaits
this can really
hit close to
this point
I hear we are literally millions
but than again
nations have conditioned us
