I was sitting
On the roof of my house
With a shotgun

And a six pack of beers, six pack of beers, six pack of beers
The newscaster says the enemy's among us
As bombs explode on the thirty bus
Kill your middle class indecision
Now is not the time for a liberal thought

So I go hunting for witches
I go hunting for witches
Heads are going to roll
I go hunting for

Nineties, optimistic as a teen
Now its terror
Airplanes crash into towers

The Daily Mail says the enemys among us
Taking our women and taking our jobs
The reasonable fool is being drowned out
By the non-stop baying, baying, baying for blood
Fame to go

So I go hunting for witches
I go hunting for witches
Heads are going to roll
I go hunting for

I was an ordinary man with ordinary desires
I watched TV and it formed me
I was an ordinary man with ordinary desires
There must be accountability

Despaired and misinformed
Fear will keep us all in place

So I go hunting for witches
I go hunting for witches
Heads are going to
I go hunting for

I was an ordinary man with ordinary desires
I watched TV and it formed me
I was an ordinary man with ordinary desires
There must be accountability

Despaired and misinformed
Fear will keep us all in place

    Its about the media telling us that there are terrorists in our society and we should go out and get them, Like they hunted for witches back in the day.

    "was sitting on the roof of my house With a shotgun And a six pack of beers (six pack of beers, six pack of beers)" thats the average joe goign out and doing it, like they tell us too.

    "In the '90s, optimistic as a teen Now its terror Airplanes crash into towers" It used to be about dreams, now its all changed and the world is terrorism
