Livin' in a Red State with the Blue State Blues

VOTING IS OVER
YOU CAN’T BELIEVE YOUR EARS
WE’RE GOING DOWN THE DRAIN
NOW THEY’RE SAYING FOUR MORE YEARS
BUT THE PEOPLE ALL AROUND YOU
DON’T KNOW WHAT THEY’VE GOT TO LOSE
CAUSE YOU’RE LIVING IN A RED STATE
WITH THE BLUE STATE BLUES

YOUR NEIGHBORS ALL HAVE VALUES
BUT IS THAT A FACT
THEY ALL KNOW WHAT WENT ON
IN THAT PRISON IN IRAQ
SO YOU GUESS THEY MUST APPROVE
‘CAUSE IT’S NOT THEM BEING ABUSED
YOU’RE LIVING IN A RED STATE
WITH THE BLUE STATE BLUES

YOUR NEIGHBOR LIKES TO HUNT
THAT’S O.K.
BUT SOMEONE WITH AN UZI
CAN SURE MESS UP YOUR DAY
YOU WANT COMMON SENSE CONTROL
WHAT’S THE HUNTER GONNA LOSE
YOU’RE LIVING IN A RED STATE
WITH THE BLUE STATE BLUES

HALF OF YOUR NEIGHBORS
HAVE BEEN DIVORCED
SOME NEVER WOULD HAVE MARRIED
IF THEY HADN’T BEEN FORCED
BUT GAY MARRIAGE
GETS THEM ALL CONFUSED
CAUSE YOU’RE LIVING IN A RED STATE
WITH THE BLUE STATE BLUES

IT SEEMS AL-QUADA
GOT YOUR NEIGHBORS ON THE RUN
THEY’RE GONNA BOMB THE WAL-MART
IN THEIR SEARCH FOR MARTYRDOM
ONLY BUSH CAN SAVE THEM
THEY HEARD IT ON THE NEWS
CAUSE YOU’RE LIVING IN A RED STATE
WITH THE BLUE STATE BLUES

WHEN ABORTION WAS ILLEGAL
GIRLS KNEW HOW TO FIND A QUACK
WHO COULD GET THEM OUT OF TROUBLE
IN A DIRTY ROOM OUT BACK
WHAT DO THEY THINK IS GONNA HAPPEN
WHEN THEY LOSE THEIR RIGHT TO CHOOSE?
BUT YOU’RE LIVING IN A RED STATE
WITH THE BLUE STATE BLUES

AND WHAT ABOUT
UNWANTED KIDS
WILL THEY SUPPORT THEM WITH THEIR TAXES
HEAVEN FORBID
THEY’LL JUST KILL THEM WHEN THEY GROW UP
IF THEY COMMIT A CRIME
THEY’RE ALL FOR THE FETUS
BUT EXECUTIONS ARE JUST FINE

THESE RIGHT TO LIFE HYPOCRITES
GO TO CHURCH AND PRAY
THEN THEY COME OUT BELIEVING
ONLY THEY KNOW THE WAY
THEY WILL TELL YOU HOW TO LIVE YOUR LIFE
BUT YOU KNOW IT’S A RUSE
CAUSE YOU’RE LIVING IN A RED STATE
WITH THE BLUE STATE BLUES

SUPPORT THE TROOPS
THAT’S WHAT THEIR BUMPER STICKERS SAY
THEN THEY VOTE FOR THE CRIMINALS
WHO PUT THEM IN HARMS WAY
THEY CAN’T WAIT FOR ARMAGEDDON
SO THEY’RE LIGHTING THE FUSE
YOU’RE LIVING IN A RED STATE
WITH THE BLUE STATE BLUES
