âTis The Season Of Suicide
by BAR poet in residence Raymond Nat Turner
Letâs go get stoned
Letâs go get stoned
And while weâre out
Letâs pick up six packs of
Cluster bombs from General
Dynamicsââbombiesâ for our
Babies and grandbabies to play withâŚ
Letâs go get shot
Letâs go get shot
Attempting beer with a
Notorious Negro sheriffâ
Judas Stephen Clarkeâand
Other bassackwards Negroz
Of the Thom-ass Clarence-
Strong-arm Williams TribeâŚ
Letâs go get screwed
Letâs go get screwed
By neo-liberal, lemon-dick
Dems, since itâs the season of
PSYOPs âsuicide coming once
Every four years, making us
Hurt ourselves⌠seven generationsâŚ
