Songtext von 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
