Ass Clown Lyrics by Ministry

Rio Grande Blood

2006

[Intro: Jello Biafra]
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Washington DC, home of the ass clown
Step right up into the 3,000 ring circus of The Beltway and witness the impossible
See them grovel, see them lie, see them crawl on their bellies
See real live white collar terrorists in their own natural habitat
See the Department of Homeland Security perfecting new ways of drowning Black people
While our health care is subsidizing corporate drug dealers aiding big government and spying on everybody
[Verse 1: Al Jourgensen]
I want to go to the circus
The circus of power
The circus they call Washington
A circle of dishonor
I want to round up the senators
Just like they did in Rome
Feed their asses to the lions
Then I can go home
[Pre-Chorus: Al Jourgensen]
I wanna see it go up in flames
[Chorus: Al Jourgensen]
Ass clown, you're going down
[Verse 2: Al Jourgensen]
I want to go to the circus
Bring down the circus of lies
The ultimate goal and purpose
Is no ass clown survives
I want to line up the congressmen
Then I strap them to their missiles
Then I'll point them at their temples
Then I'll wave goodbye!
[Pre-Chorus: Al Jourgensen]
I wanna see it go up in flames
[Chorus: Al Jourgensen]
Ass clown, you're going down
[Bridge: Jello Biafra]
See them stroke each other with bribes as they try on new shades of brown lipstick
See them circle jerk to the latest photos of torture victims
Ass clown!
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3: Al Jourgensen]
I hate the three-ring circus
Under the bigtop of deceit
The circus maximus of arrogance
The circus maximus of greed
I want to line up all the judges
And take a gavel to their heads
Only then will there be justice
When all these ass clowns are dead
[Pre-Chorus: Al Jourgensen]
I wanna see it go up in flames
[Chorus: Al Jourgensen]
Ass clown, you're going down
Ass clown, you're going down
[Outro: Jello Biafra]
See how it's really done
Ass clown
