lirik lagu david rovics - today in charlottesville
[verse 1]
there was a massacre in church
that got certain forces moving
many towns are now at least superficially improving
such as in virginia
where a statue of general lee
stands as a reminder of the days of slavery
in the city center
an indelible mark
in the spot thats been renamed emanc~p~tion park
slated for removal, when a judge intervened
which might be the moment
that most fully sets the scene
for
[chorus]
nineteen injured, one k!llеd
today in charlottesville
[verse 2]
with their man in thе white house
members of the right
marched through the university
torches alight
chanting against immigrants
africans and jews
but it’s not the flying bottles
that put them in the news
so much as the bigot in the car
revving his engine loud
speeding forward and then back
running down the crowd
using the same tactic promoted by islamic state
maybe he was even shouting
“god is great”
[chorus]
nineteen injured, one k!lled
today in charlottesville
[verse 3]
more than half the city used to be in chains
now their descendants who still remain
are being forced to leave by gentrification
just like poor white folks all across the nation
and with the presidential tweets
and xenophobic rants
it’s just a matter of time before some p~wn takes tge chance
to plough into a march with half a ton of steel
this is not fake news
it’s real
[chorus]
nineteen injured, one k!lled
today in charlottesville
nineteen injured, one k!lled
today in charlottesville
