== Lyrics ==

another day begins 
and there you are 
the mother sways her shins 
here comes the footstep of the man who'll make your dreams 
the tube is fitted in 
and there you are 
the tepid seditive 
then a scream 

hold your placard up / cold and coffee cup 
after go to a bar 
hand your flier out / must admire 
how dedicated you are 
i don't wanna know if you're having fun 
or your maddens are on sale 
i don't wanna know if you've got a gun or a new stepson 
or you think you're gonna bail 

chris hougan / she had to run 
last night been a lot of fun 
but now it's french / a little tense 
she hadn't done the reading 
there she sat / hoped to pass 
didn't think to face the fact 
that oh by gosh o lack o lass 
columbia is bleeding 
walkin down / off the bus 
vickie lucas crossed campus was 
thinkin how she's made it now 
that successful feeling 
walked by fast / hailed a cab 
no clue that she'd passed a lab 
and while she's sittin in lit class 
columbia is bleeding 

the surgeon is in town 
and there you are 
the clamp is comin' down 
then a scream 

everybody knows protestors are those 
schmoes who don't have a life 
see these scientists seeking differences 
have to suffer such strife 
i don't wanna know if you're havin fun 
or your maddens are on sale 
i don't wanna know if you got a gun or a new stepson 
or you think you're gonna bail 

generalize, proselytize, verbs were spillin out their sides 
as charles eise buys his supplies gets ready for a feeding 
tried for track / hit the mat 
didn't think to face the fact 
that while he's thinkin 'man that's wack' 
columbia is bleeding 
quite a snob he didn't tip 
nice guy rob watched the eclipse 
and looked around / 'i've made it now 
i'm just so glad to be here' 
made a pass / got hand slapped 
didn't think to face the fact 
that while he's mackin on that ass 
columbia is bleeding 

you don't have a religion 
but you have fingers ten 
they clutch at your incision 
you roll them up and 
then a scream 

they're just animals / make good edibles 
fester filth and disease 
check the bible son / we got dominion 
we can do as we please 
i don't wanna know if you're havin fun 
or your maddens are on sale 
i don't wanna know if you've got a gun or a new stepson 
or you think you're gonna bail / hell 

tee tee green / mezzanine 
ended up beside the team 
and gave a cheer / got some beers 
with friends who started streakin 
back with zach said 'i look fat' 
didn't think to face the fact 
that while she's under self-attack 
columbia is bleeding 
rodney j began to pray 
his momma lost her life that day 
had been a year / it wasn't clear 
if he was safe or screamin 
as he jabbed the bible flap 
he didn't think to face the fact 
that barbarism killed the cat 
columbia is bleeding 

this is the ivy league ''
