about

A super special teaser from our upcoming EP!

All funds from digital downloads go to Black Lives Matter - Toronto.

lyrics

Southern states with slave patrols
The TPS and Interpol
With badge and gun they gentrify
The BIA's been deputized
Abet the spread of capital
Push carding's racist vitriol
Whose needs to you prioritize?
Wealthy, white, the cis man's pride

CHORUS

There's no such thing as a queer cop
You can't plant a garden in a parking lot
The weeds will be strangled by the asphalt
There's no such thing as a queer cop
There's no such thing

White folks ask for cops at pride
Put our comfort before Black lives
It's how the state effects its will
Power unmasked, its force distilled
Guard nations and identities
The limits of normality
But as universes tend to entropy
So queerness tends to anarchy

CHORUS X2
