Burn It Down
[Verse 1]
Rodney Coronado was arrested for a speech
That he gave one evening by the San Diego beach
He stated his opinions; they sounded just like mine
Now they wanna put him behind bars till 2029
[Verse 2]
Prosecutors said the problem was the speech showed intent
I couldn't figure out exactly what that meant
You can't describe an action, say you thought that it was swell
So what'll happen when we sing this? Who the heck can tell?
[Bridge]
But we don't like the condo, and we're gonna burn it down!
Corporate terrorists: drive 'em outta town!
We'll bring a lotta gasoline, pour it on the floor
Light a match, say a prayer, and run right out the door!
[Chorus]
Burn it down! (Burn it down!)
Burn it down! (Burn it down!)
We're going to burn it down!
Burn it down! (Burn it down!)
Burn it down! (Burn it down!)
Burn it down!...
[Verse 3]
If you just sang that chorus then you just broke the law
To be an eco-terrorist now, you just gotta flap your jaw
And, hey, who knows, by the time you have a chance to blink
Whether you're a criminal might depend on what you think
[Bridge]
But we don't like the bulldozer; we're gonna burn it down!
Corporate terrorists: drive 'em outta town!
We'll bring a lotta gasoline, pour it on the floor
Light a match, say a prayer, and run right out the door!
[Chorus]
Burn it down! (Burn it down!)
Burn it down! (Burn it down!)
We're going to burn it down!
Burn it down! (Burn it down!)
Burn it down! (Burn it down!)
Burn it down!...
[Verse 4]
First they came for Rod, maybe next they'll come for you
Let me tell you what I think all of us should do
Sing this song with me, raise your fist, and caterwaul
If we fight together, they can't arrest us all
[Bridge]
'Cause we don't like the Walmart, and we're gonna burn it down!
Corporate terrorists: drive 'em outta town!
We'll bring a lotta gasoline, pour it on the floor
Light a match, say a prayer, and run right out the door
[Chorus]
Burn it down! (Burn it down!)
Burn it down! (Burn it down!)
We're going to burn it down!
Burn it down! (Burn it down!)
Burn it down! (Burn it down!)
Burn it down!...
