lyrics

I shouldn't have to say this, but authoritarians suck!

I don't care if you're left or right, authoritarians suck (You better get up) Black, brown, orange or white, authoritarians suck
And if they come round, you better fight
Or you can kiss democracy goodnight, authoritarians suck

(You better get up now!)
I shouldn't have to say this, but authoritarians suck!

They only care about loyalty, authoritarians suck Brains are no priority, authoritarians suck Dictators or royalty, authoritarians suck
Smooth and sweet or oily, authoritarians suck

(You better get up now!)
I shouldn't have to say this, but authoritarians suck!

(You gotta beat 'em down)
Medieval feudalists, German National Socialists Soviet Russian communists, authoritarians suck Globalists or patriots, Christians, Muslims, Atheists Homophobic or racist, authoritarians suck

The people deserve to be free, just let them believe what they want to believe We all want a world that is fair, just let people wear what they want to wear
I wanna do what I do, so I gotta let you go be you, unless you
Hurt someone else or stop them from doing whatever that they wanna do

I shouldn't have to say this, but authoritarians suck!
