One For Eugene Lyrics

Gc5 One For Eugene

From the one-two punch of the days of '19
To the clear and present danger of the modern scene
Nonsensical fools with centrist views wanna crucify their saints
And their struggle for existance is a totalitarian fate
Your tradition of sedition is quickly being replaced
The rush to moderation is shocking
Distinctions still put men behind bars
The mutinous at heart will bleed in their master's bloody wars
And the intelligent are in traction as the times of crisis near
Will they mobilize for justice or will they mobilize for fear?
You always dared to tell the truth
This one's for you Eugene
Had a heart and conviction in everything you'd do
Canton 1918
They're so filled up with delusions, I wish there were another way
But Gene, I gotta tell ya, they'd still lock you up today
The man was cruel to you Eugene, draconian at best
Your tradition of sedition will soon be laid to rest
