I cried when they shot John Lennon Tears ran down my spine And I cried when I saw "JFK" As if I'd lost a father of mine But Malcom-X and Ice-T had it coming They got what they asked for this time [Chorus:] So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal I go to pro-choice rallies Recycle my cans and jars I'll honk if you love the Dead Hope those funny Grunge bands become stars But don't talk about revolution That's going a little bit to far [Chorus:] So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal I cheered when Clinton was chosen My faith in the system reborn I'll do anything to save our schools If my taxes ain't too much more And I love Blacks and Gays and Latinos As long as they don't move next door [Chorus:] So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal Rush Limbaugh and the L.A.P.D.
