Stonewall

歌詞

The Stonewall Bar was raided We did not like the owner The cops came in without warning And all the dancing stopped If you had your ID you left peacefully like me If you had your ID you left peacefully like me Paid goons started the riot The stonewall kids were shot These paid goons they were hired To see the bar was torn apart 20 years later they put my clone on TV They even dressed him up so that he would look just like me Don't you believe the stories that they write about that night The stonewall kids had good jobs and all of us were white Everyone takes credit for what happened on that night And all of them seem happy while I'm drugged to be uptight I did not get any favors from the ones who used my clone In fact they owe me money from when my SSI was stopped Now they will not pay me And offer me no explanation why And I know that they don't need me because they got my clone instead They harass me and they torture me thinking I will kill myself But instead I outsmart them with the music that I sell Now my clone has replaced me But they cannot replace my soul So if you see me and I don't know you its not me but my clone instead I sing this little warning to all of my close friends Who maybe tortured with me until my story ends Its true that they don't need you, they'll use your clone instead And arrange a little accident to make the real you dead
