  • I was sitting on the roof of my house
    With a shotgun
    And a six pack of beers (six pack of beers, six pack of beers)

    The newscaster says the enemy's among us
    As bombs explode on the 30 bus
    Kill your middle class indecision
    Now is not the time for liberal thought

    So I go hunting for witches
    I go hunting for witches
    Heads are going to roll
    I go hunting for

    In the '90s, optimistic as a teen
    Now its terror
    Airplanes crash into towers

    The Daily Mail says the enemy's among us
    Taking our women, and taking our jobs
    The reasonable fool is being drowned out
    By the non-stop baying, baying, baying for blood

    So I go hunting for witches
    I go hunting for witches
    Heads are going to roll
    I go hunting for

    I was an ordinary man with ordinary desire
    I watched TV, it informed me
    I was an ordinary man with ordinary desire
    And there must be accountability

    Desperate and misinformed
    Fear will keep us all in place

    So I go hunting for witches
    I go hunting for witches
    Heads are going to roll
    I go hunting for

    I was an ordinary man with ordinary desire
    I watched TV, it informed me
    I was an ordinary man with ordinary desire
    And there must be accountability

    Desperate and misinformed
    Fear will keep us all in place Writer/s: GORDON MOAKES, KELE OKEREKE, MATT TONG, RUSSELL LISSACK
