Why Did That Guy Beat You?
Lyrics by Brent L. Godfrey © 2012
Why did that guy beat you with his fist Were you really trying to resist
You had gathered peacefully in the street Daring to stand up for your beliefs Guess he didn’t like what you had to say Everyone will get their judgement day
Are you one of the 99 percent
In this season of discontent
Are you ready to rise up and take a stand?
Why did that guy beat you with his gun You were smiling eyes full of love Saw the flowers woven in your hair Waving a peace sign up in the air
All you wanted was to end the war Threatened his values to their core Why did that guy beat you
Why did that guy beat you
Are you ripe for revolution On the cusp of evolution Stand up for a new solution
Instrumental
It is the start of Spring
Wonder what the future will bring Rise up and lift your voice to sing
Why did that guy beat you with his club Your beautiful face was streaked with blood Pulled you by your hair into the street
You had courage would not admit defeat Why did that guy beat you
Why did that guy beat you -
