Ballad of Marshall Ledbetter

Lyrics

Six, six, six, Dunkin' Donuts
 A twenty inch veggie pizza from Gumby's
 Extra jalapenos on the side
 And a case of Asahi Dry
 I wish to speak with Timothy Leary
 Lemmy, jello, and Ice Cube Too
 Cartoon of Lucky's with filters
 And bring a CNN news crew
 Talahasse, Florida
 Four AM, June 14, '91
 Capitol Building's occupied
 Broke the glass, walked right inside
 Wouldn't be advisable to enter
 You don't know the number of hostiles
 Of it anyone's got guns
 Or is there's hostages
 I just want to speak my mind
 More for you than just one sound bite
 This whole world is disturbing me
 I wanna cut a rap record each month
 And mail my little pinkie to George Bush
 Agh, agh
 Where are my friends
 Where are you
 Where are you
 I can't believe it's come to this
 Sharpshooters on surrounding roofs
 Traffic blocked off by SWAT troops
 Evacuate the people inside
 Pretend we're CNN, say Leary's dead
 I just want to speak my mind
 More for you than just one sound bite
 Twelve forty five, he emerged unharmed
 J.D. in one hand, in the other, cigars
 Hendrix t-shirt and his underwear on
 Guess what, he never had no gun
 I only broadcast my freakout to the world
 I was a prisoner for twenty two years
 When I broke through that door, I was free
 Not to mention pretty damn lucky
 (Nowadays, boy, you'd just get shot)
