When the Order is Illegal, Disobey!

Parody lyrics to She’ll be Comin’ Round the Mountain by Joseph Dalaker

  1. When the order is illegal, disobey (Disobey!)
    When the order is illegal, disobey
    (Disobey!)
    When the order is illegal
    Don’t just be a pliant beagle
    When the order is illegal, disobey!
    (Disobey!)

  2. When the boss is unelected, disobey
    (Disobey!)
    When the boss is unelected, disobey
    (Disobey!)
    When the boss is unelected
    And says your job’s unprotected
    Tell him his cars are defective.
    Disobey!
    (Disobey!)

  3. If the Muskrat RIFs* your people, disobey
    (Disobey!)
    If the Muskrat RIFs your people, disobey
    (Disobey!)
    If retire you don’t wanna
    Tell him Go back home to Tshwane”**
    If the Muskrat RIFs your people, disobey!
    (Disobey!)

  4. When the crook says stop the payments” disobey.
    (Disobey!)
    When the crook says stop the payments” disobey.
    (Disobey!)
    When the crook says stop the payments”
    Think of all his lawsuit claimants
    When the crook says stop the payments” disobey
    (Disobey!)

  5. When he says to whitewash hist’ry disobey
    (Disobey!)
    When he says to whitewash hist’ry disobey
    (Disobey!)
    It’s no wonder, it’s no myst’ry,
    Everyone’s a part of hist’ry
    If you love both Truth and Country disobey!
    (Disobey!)

  6. If the orders say to censor, disobey.
    (Disobey)
    If the orders say to censor, disobey (disobey)
    If you say you love your freedom
    Don’t ban books, instead just read em
    Or you always could just leave em. Disobey!
    (Disobey!)

  7. If your orders are to kidnap, disobey (Disobey)
    If your orders are to kidnap, disobey (Disobey)
    Speech and assembly give us freedom
    So protect em—we all need em
    Donny uses goons to cheat em. Disobey!
    (Disobey!)

  8. If you believe his lies no longer, disobey
    (Disobey)
    If you believe his lies no longer disobey
    (Disobey)
    Don’t engage in insurrection
    Just cause he can’t get erections
    The Constitution needs protection. Disobey!
    (Disobey!)

  9. If they say you’re out of order, disobey. (Disobey!)
    If they say you’re out of order, disobey. (Disobey!)
    If they say you’re out of order,
    Then just what were you elected for?
    So make your voice like thunder. Disobey!
    (Disobey!)

    (Disobey!)
    When the order is illegal disobey
    (Disobey!)
    He’s a tyrant, he’s a felon,
    We’re not buyin’ what he’s sellin’
    Tell him fuck right off to hell and
    Disobey!
    (DISOBEY!)
