 A tale of wrong and right
 And freedom is the reason

 To come and look for you
 We're gonna put a stop
 To what you want to do"

2nd verse, prechorus, verse, prechorus, chorus
(uses the same guitar parts):

"Well, I'm startin' up a posse
   (fascist scum, fascist scum)
 And we'll damn sure make you see
 Something that offends you
 May not be offensive to me

 You fuckin' whores
   (you fuckin' whores)
 That's all you are

 Now you might take offense
 To a word like 'fuck' or 'shit'
   (dick!)
 But you fuckin' don't have the right
   (cunt!)
 To discriminate me for saying it!

 You fuckin' whores
   (you fuckin' whores)
 That's all you are

 Shit, fuck, satan, death, sex, drugs, rape
 These seven words you're tryin' to take
 Shit, fuck, satan, death, sex, drugs, rape
 Right or wrong, it's our choice to make
 America the beautiful, land of the free
 Don't change the words to land of hypocrisy"

3rd verse, prechorus, verse, prechorus, chorus
(again, the same parts):

"So now I'm startin' up a posse
   (motherfucker, motherfuck)
 To fight for freedom of choice
 To fight for freedom of speech
 We're gonna make you hear our voice"

"And now, I don't do this to shock you
   (that's the end, that's the end)
 I don't do this for spite
 You've got the choice, don't buy it, don't read it,
 And don't say your opinion's right

 You fuckin' whores
   (you fuckin' whores)
 That's all you are
   (cunty, cunty, cunty, cunt)

 You know you can't censor my feelings
 You can't censor my thoughts
 Censorship's against
 everything America stands for

 You fuckin' whores
   (let us decide)
 That's all you are
   (and this ain't sexist either)

 Shit, fuck, satan, death, sex, drugs, rape
 These seven words you're trying to take
 Shit, fuck, satan, death, sex, drugs rape
 Right or wrong, it's our choice to make
 America the beautiful, land of the free
 Don't change the words to land of hypocrisy"

play the first half of the interlude and repeat the last 1/4 of that
part 4 times... then end on an F...
