Lyrics

To Kansas gun men came
To fight for rights of states
The right to chain and rape, enslave
Humans

Then it all went south
They hung captain Brown
At least his sword’s immortal now
Mmm Hmmm

Strange institutions rise
Shine light on a lie
Let this unholy union die
It’s time for a new one

Frederick Douglass wants this war
Whitman in ink and sword
Lincoln thinkin’ all should be restored
Stupid

Pray for death and flame
Lay waste and ruin
Burn off the fog yesterday
Exhume it

Strange institutions rise
Shine light on a lie
Let this unholy union die
It’s time for a new one
Mm hmm
