Don't Fucking Be Civil
Channel: Jonathan Mann

Sure they’re locking up children
And injecting them with drugs
Sure they’re not even letting brothers
Give their little sisters hugs
Sure they stand before the nation
Every single day and lie
Dismantling the ACA
Ensuring that people die

But you gotta be civil
Yeah you gotta be civil
Don’t you show the world how angry you are
Not even just a little
You better not make them face
Any kind of consequences
Sure they’re human rights abusers
But we can always mend these fences 

Obama tried civility 
Obama tried compromise
He deported 2 million people
Gave us Romneycare in disguise 
Bill Clinton he was civil
He started mass incarceration
And we wonder why Democrats lost
1000 seats across the nation

So never be civil
Fucking don’t be civil 
When it’s evil that we’re facing
We call it out as evil 
When it’s racism and fascism 
Can be no civility 
Today it’s denying them service
Tomorrow it’s the guillotine 



Hi there! If you're new around these parts, welcome. I'm Jonathan Mann. I write a song every single day, and I've been doing that for the last 9+ years.

Through sick days, tired days, days with no inspiration, the death of my grandma, the breakup of a 5 year long relationship, the marriage to my wife and the birth of our son - I've never missed a day. This is my life's work.
