I Kill Therefore I Am

Phil Ochs

Intro : Meet the king of cowboys, he rides a pale pony He fights the bad boys brings them to their knees He patrols the highways from the air He keeps the country safe from long hair I am the masculine american man I kill therefore I am. I don't like the black man, for he doesn't know his place Take the back of my hand or I'll spray you with my mace I'm as brave as any man can be I find my courage through chemistry I am the masculine american man I kill therefore I am. I don't like the students now, they don't have no respect They don't like to work now, I think I'll wring their necks They call me pig, although I'm underpaid I'll show those faggots that I'm not afraid I am the masculine american man I kill therefore I am. Farewell to the gangsters we don't need them anymore We've got the police force, they're the ones who break the law He's got a gun and he's a hater He shoots first, he shoots later I am the masculine american man I kill therefore I am.
