Marxism Sucks lyrics

Marxism sucksSocialism is the creed of ignoranceSocialism is the philosophy of failureSocialism is the gospel of envy

Leftists always promise a utopiaA utopia of free stuffWhich results in an equal sharingAn equal sharing of misery

Leftists can’t just admit to thatThis is why for HalloweenThe biggest ghoulsThe biggest goblinsThe scariest spectersAre political shapeshiftersOf the Marxist left in AmericaThey promise treatsBut end up tricking you

You can defy themNever careLaugh at themThey’ve got nothing

Marxism sucksSocialism is the creed of ignoranceSocialism is the philosophy of failureSocialism is the gospel of envy

Marxism sucksSocialism is the creed of ignoranceSocialism is the philosophy of failureSocialism is the gospel of envy

This song borrows some words from an article I read (but I lost the link to that). The rest of the song is based on words I wrote (the midsection).

Fighters lyrics

The fighters who make historyAre the ones who dare to be greatThe great ones don’t read historyThe great ones make history

Where are all the good boys?The incredible womenThe close friendsThe loyal team membersThe great leadersSadlyThey are all up in heavenUp in heaven with GodThey fought the good fightAnd lostThey lost everything

The fighters who make historyAre the ones who dare to be greatThe great ones don’t read historyThe great ones make history

This song is adapted from an article written by Scott Pinsker for PJ Media. Source: https://pjmedia.com/scott-pinsker/2026/10/13/why-the-midterm-polling-is-absolutely-positively-100-wrong-maybe-n4958269. This we know: Nobody Knows Nothin’.

Nobody Knows Nothin’

When we crack the veneerOf scientific-sounding statsOf scientific-sounding numbersOf scientific-sounding probabilitiesBoth weather forecastersAnd fake-news pollstersUse the exact same languageIt’s kind of eerie

Because the God’s honest truth isNobody knows nothin’

Our world runs on incentive structuresYour values and goalsThey drive your decision-makingIt’s a fundamental tenetA tenet of free market capitalism

Because the God’s honest truth isNobody knows nothin’

The trouble isOur incentive structuresCan also lead us astrayLow-hanging fruitSocioeconomic pressuresAnd instant gratificationCloud our judgment

Because the God’s honest truth isNobody knows nothin’

Instead of strivingStriving for long-term accuracyWe settle for short-term accoladesBecause the God’s honest truth isNobody knows nothin’
