Neil Young has launched a new song, Big Crime, and the lyrics don't pull any punches in their criticism of US President Donald Trump's decision to deploy the National Guard to the streets of Washington, DC.
Young debuted the song during his show with the Chrome Hearts at the Huntington Bank Pavilion at Northerly Island, Chicago, IL, on Wednesday night, and has now released a version recorded during the soundcheck for that show.
Young's recent protest songs have left little room for ambiguity, from 2006's Let’s Impeach the President to this year's Let's Roll Again ("If you're a fascist, then get a Tesla"), and Big Crime is no exception.
Don’t need no fascist rules
Don’t want no fascist schools
Don’t want soldiers on our streets
There’s big crime in DC at the White House
There’s big crime in DC at the White House
Got to get the fascists out
Got to clean the White House out
Don’t want soldiers on our streets
There’s big crime in DC at the White House
There’s big crime in DC at the White House
