Propagandhi - Oka Everywhere lyrics
[Propagandhi - Oka Everywhere lyrics]
Was that SQ cop catching a
Bullet with his teeth
Condolence, madame Canadiana
But, your husband was a fucking stuck pig
But this song's not about some
Romantic account of history
It's not about martyrs or mythos
Or heroes or burnings-in-effigy
It's about a native kid flipping her lid
Just trying to keep some self-respect intact
It's about an oka the size of a fist
In resistance and a will to fight back
The girls at work
They still deny their racism
They claim tolerance for all
But it seems the degree of only
Racial slurs is their gauge
And it defines tolerance as hate
And there's 27 million "girls-at-work" here
Imagine fighting that 500 years
And golly-gee, how valiant how the white
Oppressor makes allowance
For calculated gestures of insurgence
All tightly tethered to their purses purpose
Oka had this orchestra aborted
Oka fucked their rules to
Choose a future self-determined
And I support it
And the best thing I think I ever said
If a Kevin Kostner Kavalry is
Your means to their end
Then the struggle is dead
Why do we pretend that our approval
Is upon what they depend?
