Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm sitting on the roof of my house With a shotgun and a six-pack of beer The newscaster says, "the enemy is among us" As bombs explode on the 30 bus Kill your middle class indecision Now is not the time for liberal thought [Chorus] So I go hunting for witches I go hunting for witches Heads are going to roll I go hunting for— [Verse 2] In the '90s, optimistic as a teen Now it's terror, airplanes crash into towers The Daily Mail says, "the enemy is among us Taking our women and taking our jobs" All reasonable thought is being drowned out By the non-stop baying, baying, baying for blood [Chorus] So I go hunting for witches I go hunting for witches Heads are going to roll I go hunting for— [Bridge] I was an ordinary man with ordinary desire I watched TV, it informed me I was an ordinary man with ordinary desire There must be accountability Disparate and misinformed Fear will keep us all in place [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] So I go hunting for witches I go hunting for witches Heads are going to roll I go hunting for— [Bridge] I was an ordinary man with ordinary desire I watched TV, it informed me I was an ordinary man with ordinary desire There must be accountability Disparate and misinformed Fear will keep us all in place
