about

alternate version of 'Join Us,' for the law enforcement officers who actually believe Scott Walker's on their side

lyrics

They used you for years ‘gainst the blacks and the queers
Poorly paid musketeers, open your eyes and ears

Too feeble to flex, they called all hands on decks
Troops trained in their TECs on their own, the rednecks

Hey, National Guardsman, I’m talking to you, working dude to working dude
Think about who’s employing us and you won’t beat us, you’ll be joining us

Join us, join us, join us for a jamboree
Help us turn back to the 21st century
Join us, join us, soldier and deputy
Look to Egypt, not these eejits, and set yourself free

When the governor calls, spazzin’ out like Wally Sprawls,
grow yourself some balls, tell him find other gun molls

Hey, Mr. Policeman, I’m talking to you, working dude to working dude
Think about who’s employing us and you won’t beat us, you’ll be joining us

Join us, join us, join us for a jamboree
Help us turn back to the 21st century
Join us, join us, soldier and deputy
This ain’t Libya – don’t be an idiot, and set yourself free

because guess who’s next, guess who’s next with nooses ‘round necks
Guess who’s next, guess who’s next facing down TECs
Guess who’s next, guess who’s next – that’s you, you rednecks
