Defective Frequency - Hats Off to Bobby Lyrics

I wanna write a protest song
Bout puppet Trump and what's going on
This darkest f*cking timeline
The border, Mueller the whistleblower

But I'm just a rock singer
And I gotta make a living here
So the lyrics get watered down
The royalties gotta stick around

I'll bullshit that it's timelessness
Going for that hippie earnestness
But it's really so things don't get
Awkward with my Wall Street set

They f*cked that up in Primal Scream
Know what's Timeless? 2013
But no one spins it anymore
We bought the lie like they did before

Can't sing impeach all of them
Too on-the-nose for Instagram
The kids they won't keep steaming it
Won't get that point 007 cents

So hats off to you bobby man
You were rock and roll's last stand
So hats off to you bobby man
Punk rock it came and then it went
RIP voices of dissent
RIP voices of dissent
In Rock and Roll

So hats off to you bobby man
You were rock and roll's last stand
So hats off to you bobby man
Punk rock it came and then it went
RIP voices of dissent
RIP voices of dissent
Getting Rich I Guess

All my friends on the left
Are getting bolder, have no f*cks left
To give yeah it's the one bright spot
In this Twitter hellscape that we're caught

But we know who hasn't yet
Placed their chips and made their bets
Old white man f*cking rock and roll
It's so sad and predictable

Mark sang about the bathroom bill
Said he'd come and play in Chapel Hill
When they killed off that shitty law
But Mark's off to Schloss Rettershof

OK that's not really fair
Mark seems like he really cares
At least he sings about the shit
Gun control and opiates

I'm ss much to blame as anyone
But all that's past yeah now I'm done
My ultra PC Facebook friends
Were right about it all in the end

Sucks it took a kleptocracy
To wake me up and make me see
Got too soft and rich but then
Not as rich as Ed Sheeren

Yeah I know it took me a while
To stand up and say they're all is vile
But southern fans they vote GOP
And they're the only ones who still buy CDs

Fear eats the soul fear eats the head
After all that's that's what Bobby said
Speaking at peace conferences
With Yanis Varoufakis
