Oaklandish

Moses is at Telegraph and Broadway
You can smell the burning bush
Chosen people shoved around
Don’t forget that we know how to push
We took the streets again, you can’t deny it
We came to stay, we’re here to occupy it
And we’re Oaklandish
Oaklandish
Oaklandish
Oaklandish
Girl scouts are marching in a protest
‘cause someone’s blowing out their wish
The preacher’s sittin' with the Buddha
The rabbi’s dancing with the fish
A crypto-fusion taco truck pulls up
And asks me if I want to fry it
«Maybe later» I say, «when I’m hungry,»
«Right now I’m here to occupy it.»
And it’s Oaklandish
Oaklandish
Oaklandish
Oaklandish
It’s complicated, like a puzzle
Does that mean you should label it as chaos?
If you can’t work it out or just don’t want to
Baby, that’s your loss
A thousand tongues tell many truths
You know we’re here to testify
We know what we’re doing
We all agree we’re here to occupy
And it’s Oaklandish
Oaklandish
Oaklandish
