*trigger warning for extremely misogynistic language

sit down they tell me
you cunt !— it’s over
and we’re doing it for you
you’ll be so free
to sit down and shut up
let us pave the road to American “greatness”
with the bones of Canadian voices
because look at you there
showing off your freedom
like a little slut
you were just asking to be fucked
over by patriots
so here we are to deliver…
