Brown gave birth to a wealthy White man, Gavin Newsom
like father like son
holding homeless people as political ransom
Running on oppressive propositions
eight years of sweeping out the brown & yellow men &
women
a Republican in Democratic skin
Green lining their pockets
campaign promises don't make it
into working class & poor people's Christmas
stockings
Make room for a 3rd party
busting up the old dusty monopoly
Matt G speak to me
The two party machine
has many walking around like robots
father and son planted a virus on the ballot
Prop N & M
Gavin Newsom still playing in Brown's shoes
can't produce an independent thought
Clang, clang
Champagne glass in one hand
silver spoon in his mouth
December's runoff
Will kick this dysfunctional family
Out of office
Newsom has an identity crisis
he should be running to the Wizard of Oz
cause he has no heart, soul or brain
Can't understand why Newsom has no respect
for people of color
oh! Cause he was raised by uncle Tom in Uncle
Sam's house
Using daddy's brown costume
to trick his father's loyal followers
like father like son, only seeing big green bucks
Amos Brown, Cecile Williams & the African American
Democratic club
file behind the Man
who hit the jack pot with the race card
San Fran recovering from a conservative, capitalist
creature
dot coms, gentrification & eviction
all happen under Brown administration
The revolution was on
activists & liberal roots
grew on the Board of Supervisors
Taking over City Hall
and the police commission
aiming for room 200
Get off the fence
put your pride aside
push Newsom & his policies-out-of bounds & on the
bench
Money swells in his pocket
while his head is empty
his promises make no sense
Polished & slick
Newsom has no substance
Matt Gonzalez has a compus
to keep the campaign on the right track
away from personal attacks and straight to the facts
A migration of low-income people
but now the tide is turning
with a living-wage ornament
Mother-nature & humanity has a chance
to work together in unity
with the green party
The ultimate balance
take a glance
leave the Brown machine
Go to the polls
Cast your vote
Toss father & son in the Bay with no boat
Like father like son
Bullshit don't float
On Dec. 9th father & son will be going down slow
