Dick Cheney Lyrics


Vic Chesnutt Dick Cheney


You're a manly man
You got a fearsome hand
Big strong shoulders
A set of stones as big as boulders
Confident leer from ear to ear

Maybe not the straightest aim
But that don't stop you from shooting
Over and over and over again
You love to shoot
In the face of our resistance

Defiant with a grin
Going down with Dick Cheney
Going down swingin'

So American, So western
You ride off into the sunset
While all civilisation burns behind you
And I, I bet you're humming
Don't fence me in
After the incredible stonewaller
That you have been
I bet you're humming don't fence me in

Admired by a few of the most powerful people in the world
You are head of y'board feared retirement
But you will be confined
To your little bubble of protectors
Cos if you stray you will have to pay
For all the unconscionable wrong
You will have to pay
For all the unconscionable wrong you did
