The Sidearm Shuffle

The Sidearm Shuffle

 

We can peacefully protest,

With a rifle on our shoulder

We can march through the streets,

And you better keep clear.

We can wear knives and pistols,

To make us look bolder,

But you can’t open carry a beer.

 

Now nipples on women

Are not welcome in public,

But a sidearm is fine,

Back off from my Glock, if you please, dear.

I’m only protecting the goddam republic,

But you can’t open carry a beer.

 

I don’t wanna see drag queens,

I get confused,

I don’t wanna know woke things,

I feel abused.

I need the comfort of deadly gear,

But you can’t open carry a beer.

 

There’s dozens of books

That ain’t right for readin’

Just haul out the Bible,

‘Cause God ain’t no queer.

And I’ll keep on packin’

Like Jesus has told me,

But you can’t open carry a beer.

 

I don’t wanna see drag queens,

I get confused,

I don’t wanna know woke things,

I feel abused.

I need the comfort of deadly gear,

But you can’t open carry a beer.
