“I Kill Therefore I Am” written by Phil Ochs as done by ted

this song is as relevant today as it was when it was written in the 1960’s

Meet the king of the cowboys, he rides a pale pony
He fights the bad boys brings them to their knees
He patrols the highways from the air
He keeps the country safe from the long hairs
I am the masculine american man
I kill therefore I am

I don’t like the black man, for he doesn’t know his place
Take the back of my hand or I’ll spray you with my mace
I’m as brave as any man can be
I find my courage through chemistry
I am the masculine american man
I kill therefore I am.

I don’t like the students now, they don’t have no respect
They don’t like to work now, I think I’ll wring their necks
They call me pig, although I’m underpaid
I’ll show those faggots that I’m not afraid
I am the masculine american man
I kill therefore I am.

Farewell to the gangsters we don’t need them anymore
We’ve got the police force, they’re the ones who break the law
He’s got a gun and he’s a hater
He shoots first, he shoots later
I am the masculine american man
I kill therefore I am.
