lyrics

O Kavanaugh
Be careful when you go to sleep tonight
O Kavanaugh
Check your corners when you kill the lights tonight

The party you've subscribed to will sell you up the street
The second they get any word of judicial integrity
The ABA and your Alma Mater really don't believe in you
Neither do your classmates or friends you had in school

O Kavanaugh
Be careful when you drive your car tonight
O Kavanaugh
Check your brakes before you start your car tonight

The only thing to do is drink
Your days are long, your future is bleak
Your only friend is the bottle now
You hide it well but they all know
Your wife is making all new friends, not introducing you to them
You think she's talking about you, and you're right
Margaret and Liza are in the public eye and seeing you for the first time
There's nothing you can do, he damage has been done, your reputation follows you around
Everywhere you go and everything you do the press and people follow you

O Kavanaugh
Your family is absolutely safe tonight
O Kavanaugh
Who cares that your morality is bunk when your vision is doubled?
You're seeing red self-righteous rage
Your rapist eyes can see that the only problem is other people
Everyone is looking at you
Everything you do is scrutinized
There isn't any way out
Everyone is out to get you
Better have another beer and visit that nice woman down the street who makes you feel alive
Unlike that plastic shell of an embarrassment that is your wife
Your life is hell, you need another drink
Bodyguards are sleeping on the job and lax gun laws make you a very easy target
Better drink your beer, another one, and grab that cocked and loaded gun beside your bed
Cry out into the silence say that you've done nothing wrong
Nobody is listening and God has turned his back on you
Everyone is nice to you only out of courtesy
You have no real friends
Pull the trigger
Pull the trigger and blow your brains all out
To end this hell ballet that is your life and save your country while you can
The world would be better off tonight
