I went to a party with my in the city   On election night   I was hoping everybody’d make a move to the left   But we gone and made a swing to the left   Now I’m singing the blues for the country   As we move into another long night      I’m gonna catch that plane and fly   Gonna sail on the next high tide   Just to get away from that cocksucker motherfucker   Darkening my mind      I stood in the corner throwing glances at the TV   I ripped the label off a bottle or nine   Some sucker rolled up in a beemer trailing streamers   And I nearly got into a fight   I said ‘you’re making a fool of the country holding hands with the Christian right’   Then I turned to my girl and I cried…      Gonna jump that train and ride   Sail on the next high tide   Just to get away from that cocksucker motherfucker   Playing on my mind and darkening our times      Ohh cocksucker motherfucker   Ohh motherfucker   Ooh cocksucker motherfucker      Well all of a sudden I got something to say   I buried my head but it wouldn’t go away   I sat around waiting for a brighter day   But the bad stuff’s coming when the good do nothing   It’s true…   So what am I gonna do?      Maybe backpack through Peru   Work for time on a farm in Timbucktoo?   To get away from that cocksucker motherfucker   Playing on my mind   The get away from that cocksucker motherfucker   Darkening our times      Ohh cocksucker motherfucker   Ohh motherfucker   Ooh cocksucker motherfucker
