Words and Music by Jerry Clarke

If you come to Charlottesville, tonight 
You know you better bring your Tiki Lights.
If you come to Charlottesville, today
 Bring your Nazi flag, and your Pepper Spray.
And if you come to Charlottesville
 Bring a burning Cross, and if a couple People die, 
Well, that’s no great Loss.

"What the heck just happened?
 I don’t understand! 
We'll walk through town together. 
Please don't be mad, Mother.”

And the Big, Ol’ Orange-Boy, 
who never shuts his mouth,
 He never said a Word
when it all went down.

And the Big, Ol’ Orange-Boy, 
he had to run and hide, 
When he told the People
 There were "Many sides."

And the Big, Ol’ Orange-Boy,  
He didn't say a thing.
 He didn’t say a thing. 
He didn't say a Thing!

And the Big, Ol’ Orange-Boy, 
who never shuts his mouth,
 He never said a Word
when it all went down!

"What the heck just happened?
 Please hold my hand! 
We'll walk through fields with Heather. 
Please don't be sad."
