We are all the Same - 'I am a Communist'


Under todays raucous climate, this may offend a few but that is what it means to be living in a Representative Constitutional Republic (not a democracy). I make no apologies, take it for what it is worth ... we all have our options. Laugh if you are from the left and relish the joy of it all if are from the right.

The truth is, there is not left or right, only individuality, liberty and freedom ... all these things granted by the greatest of all historical Republics and in direct opposition to all other political ideologies having been passed down and failed miserably in the past. Preserve it, defend it and never lose it to those who would steal the rights given us by providence.

This was not written in today's climate. I wrote this song (my last) in 2004. Some of the faces have changed to reflect the crisis we now face.




We are the Same
I am a Communist

I keep Mao’s little red book in the back of my jeans,
Preach utopia but don’t know what it means.
Lenin and Marx are men I wish I had known
But they were all gone before I was born

Chorus
I am a liberal,
a free thinker.
I am progressive
I am a socialist
I am a communist

I lie, I cheat, I revise history
and the “useful idiots”, they all follow me.
I sue, I protest and peace songs I write
to weaken your mind and steal your will to fight

Chorus
I am a liberal,
a free thinker.
I am progressive
I am a socialist
I am a communist

Bridge:
For the needs of the many,
I take all that you own;
You’ll get a ten by ten room that you can call home

And your Bill of Rights is all I need
to pervert and distort your liberty.
In the guise of freedom I’ll take it from you
Yeah, me and my comrades in the A-C-L-U

Chorus
I am a liberal,
a free thinker.
I am progressive
I am a socialist
I am a communist

Yeah, we’re one in the same
it’s all a word game
cause a rose is a rose no matter what the name.

I am a liberal,
a free thinker.
I am progressive
I am a socialist
-comrade-
I am a communist.
