Muskrats

B                          C#m          E
Flag holding muskrats with muskets and rifles
     B                                     C#m               E
Will rifle through your garbage 'till they find what they're after
        B                           C#m       E
And pretend to protect what they've actually captured
        B                     C#m          E       B C#m E
And confine every human to a small fitting animal cage


[Verse 2]
     B                    C#m          E
And sacred and scattered fruitious And oil
     B                              C#m          E
will fall through your fingers like soft bloody soil
  B                        C#m          E
A town is collapsing while babies are screaming
           B                          C#m         E
And you're losing your meaning as you watch it go down on TV

The knowledge they destroy themselves will haunt you long after you sleep
                      E
Every frog that their carelessness rips apart
     B                 F#
When every emotion you have will be wringed from your heart

And souls are not formed in the fetus you idiot
B                             C#m             E
First you must grow into the skin that you're given
     B                C#m           E
And every piece of a life that was beautiful
   B                       C#m          E         B
Is aching to come out and explode into wonderful sleep
