You gave yourself a holy mission
An unobtainable goal
To put the the bastards down, down, down
And get back all the crap they stole
You remind me of a guy that I once knew
You remind me of the things I need to do
You remind me of that "once upon a time" time
In the long year
You did not have many good options
But you did not give a care
You would fight them with a garden rake and hoe
You would fight them with your killer stare
You polished all the brass and silver
Made them clear as a bell
You drove out all the bad old boys
You really gave them hell
You planted yourself a garden
Grew corn as high as an elephant's eye
Laid down roots in the rotting soil
And redirected the water supply
