This is a story about a bulldozer:
Make way make way . coming through
Oh is that yours?
GIRL: it took my home and my brother away from me
Fuck your house fuck your land fuck your rules fuck your laws BULLDOZER
Fuck your crew, fuck your view, fuck your rights, your family too, BULLDOZER
Here we come, we barreling through
Like a megaton monster demolishing who what when why
This joy so fly, fortified and strengthen by my political ties
"You lyin!" shit you can′t run can't hide! "you can do that shit?"
When you got the backing that you need? "sweet!" and we shall proceed.
And continue, to to knock down your wife, run over your kids, grandma′s crib
I take it i want it and when it's demolished it's mine
I love my bulldozer i keep it polished and shined
A dirty earth mover put your house in the sea
Buy one and get the hat shirt and calendar free
Fuck your house fuck your land fuck your rules fuck your laws BULLDOZER
Fuck your crew, fuck your view, fuck your rights, your family too, BULLDOZER
DRIVER 2:
HEY! get out of the way. everybody knows peace is gay so
HEY! get out of the way. we got so much to move today
From the highest mountains, down to sea, there ain′t no running from this army
We got democracy and theocracy once again in perfect harmony
So here we stand the chosen man bulldozing chosen land what you grow we blow to sand
Some may call it a crusade but we can′t see any other way
So drop your things, drop your dreams don't stop to think ALL EARS
Can′t you hear that freedom ring?
(Ding ding) here we come i'm armed and backed bipartisan with god on our side making guns this bulldozing is so damn fun
So, make way we′re coming through and there ain't a damn thing you can do
I got a 100 tons to your 100 pounds and 300 to 1 you′re going down so.
Run away what you got to say cause everybody knows that peace is gay
Just run run away to the sand to play cause no matter what you say we're here to stay so .
Fuck your house fuck your land fuck your rules fuck your laws BULLDOZER
Fuck your crew, fuck your view, fuck your rights, your family too, BULLDOZER
Oh no here they come!
Gun shots aiming at my dome, these goddam tanks won't leave me alone
It′s like everywhere i′m seeing the chrome
Got to fight a tank with a shank and a stone
And if it's on then it′s on and it's on
My mama always said why you act so grown
But mama i′ve been up in these streets all alone
Trying to stop the bulldozers running over my home
Mama get dressed when they come it's on
On a late night trying to take our crib we gone
Don′t worry about your baby boy trust i'm grown
If the boys rush the spot they might get blown
Fee fi foo fum i smell blood of a homeless man
We fight for fun, keep these families on the run
BULLDOZER! that's how we do it!
I want to give a big shout out to the government for giving me the ability to do this
And a big shout out to freedom and liberty, and the freedom to bulldoze
I don′t think anybody else can do this and i thank you
Thank you everyone for giving me everything that′s yours, i appreciate it
God bless, goodnight
The song "Bulldozer" by Goldishack Guerrillas is a satirical song that tells the story of two bulldozer drivers who have no regard for anyone's property or rights. They drive their bulldozer over everything in their path, whether it is a person's home, land, or family members. They speak of the joy of destroying people's lives and the pleasure they get from their political connections and freedom to do whatever they want.
The song also features a young girl survivor who has lost her home and brother due to the bulldozer's destruction. The song also references the controversial story of American activist Rachel Corrie, who was killed while attempting to stop a bulldozer from destroying a Palestinian home.
The lyrics are meant to be a commentary on the destructive nature of the government and its policies on land and property. The song challenges the idea that might makes right and depicts the bulldozer drivers as sadistic and insensitive to the human toll of their actions.
