“ANOTHER JANUARY 6”
Words and Music by JIM NOVAK, 2/4/25
[VERSE 1] Thirteen billionaires work for Donald Trump
They want You to thank Them, for their service.
Billionaires in government, won’t they enrich themselves?
They want to convince you, Don’t Be Nervous
[VERSE 2] Elon Musk, not elected, not appointed, or vetted
His DOGE Bro’s are cruel but efficient
Rolling up the Treasury, civil service, foreign aid
It’s a combo: to be lawless and omniscient.
[Chorus 1] And now, every day’s Another January 6
From Capitol Hill to the White-House Ellipse
They broke into the Government so they could take a sh*t
Every single day is Another January 6, January 6.
[VERSE 3] Justice has an arc, when we meet the situation
But the rich play a never-ending game.
Hating on the government, feathering their nest
The Lies and Propaganda Hall of Shame.
[Chorus 2] And now, every day’s Another January 6
From Capitol Hill to the White-House Ellipse,
Democracy’s irrelevant, Congress is eclipsed.
Every single day is Another January 6, January 6.
[BRIDGE]
Citizens properly pissed stand up and resist
Pushing back on autocrats, and the dirty Muskrats…
[Chorus 3] But for now, every day’s Another January 6
From Capitol Hill to the White-House Ellipse
They broke into the government so they could take a sh*t
Democracy’s irrelevant, Congress is eclipsed.
Every single day is Another January 6, January 6.
