David Rovics - Behind That Gate lyrics

The judge condescended to the people Said you peaceful protesters are deceptive And to the ideas of the terrorists I know you are receptive So we've got to throw away the Fourth Amendment Keep those protesters on the run 'Cause we found sandwich wrappers Next we might just find a gun (Chorus) We're here at Fort Benning Please excuse me when I state That if you're looking here for weapons You'll find them behind that gate If you're looking here for weapons You'll find them behind that gate But you say some of them are anarchists They are wearing black While you're loading up the warplanes To go attack Iraq And we're getting searched here by your wands As we stand for human rights Outside a terrorist training camp Just within your sniper rifle sights (Chorus) Yes it's a strange situation But it could certainly get stranger Now you're looking over here For a sign of danger 'Cause people here are conspiring to trespa** Yeah, you know what you saw So you think that leaves you no alternative But to declare martial law (Chorus)
