lyrics

Frat house on Ashford Street
I heard a bro say gleefully
“I’m going down to the bar
Gonna fuck whatever bitch”
Yadda yadda then I stopped listening
I’ve been walking quickly past the same place for eight years
And always the same shit
I’d really like to end it
Start thinking like the (Black) Panthers did, yea!
Start a feminist posse
Hang in Allston with our weapons drawn when the predators go prowling
Let’s show them what ‘collective self-defense’ means
When the powers that be won’t keep safe our streets:
Rich kid rapist, GET ON THE PAVEMENT
Let my friends walk without hesitation
‘Cause you’ll be accountable when we’re out to roam
Yea your reign of goddamn terror will come home

The Michael Character Boston, Massachusetts

It's political music, whatever. Based in Boston, MA. Absolutely willing to drive very far to play for you and five of your vaguely alternative friends in your combination kitchen/laundry room. Hit me up. I'm fully serious.
