Lyrics

[Verse 1] They're coming at you from all sides To imprint your body and say they didn't The highest authority on Cheez Whiz Hiding behind a Supreme Court urinal [Chorus] Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run [Verse 2] Or do male justices piss in a squat? Our sister lives in a squat that pisses on justice Justice is blind and a woman to boot These boots are made for marching and that's justice too [Chorus] Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run [Verse 3] They say, "silly woman can't organize a spice rack" When we say 'they,' we mean 'us' part of the time We are all one, but not today Fish tomorrow, not today [Chorus] Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run [Verse 4] Run back to the park, they'll roll you a cig, free Run to any immigrant detention facility Run you back to the jailhouse For not talking shit on their ugly wives and kids [Chorus] Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run [Verse 5] Run you up a thirty-foot totem pole Run, sister, tell the people Run your life, if you're not careful Tell Father Time his daughters are waiting [Chorus] Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run [Verse 6] My sister's a Queen, she ain't no concubine Don't call my sister no concubine, she is the Mother of Creation Who are you? Who are you to call her a concubine? Don't you know you have to forgive that you may be forgiven? [Chorus] Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run [Verse 7] Men, respect your sister and respect your Queen Be good to your woman and she will free you Sister, forgive your man that he may rise from bondage Only you, my Queen, can free the man [Chorus] Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run [Verse 8] Full moon in Pisces, a reflective riddle Illusory shadows upon open wounds Wars of our fathers bouncing like pinball machines Between me and my brother stands our sister, don't shoot! [Chorus] Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run Run, sister, run Sister, run, sister Run, sister, run
