The Social Justice Warrior Blues

All our playgrounds are bubble wrapped, as our parent’s helicopter nearby
God forbid we get the tiniest scrape or bruise, they’d call the ambulance for we’d surely die
Got a wall of participation trophies, got one for failing common core
Sticks and stones may break our bones, but names will hurt us even more

We grew up on a steady diet of Adderral and aspartame
We can’t be held responsible for being a tad soft in the brain
We’re the new Millennial - SJW’s and we’ve got society to blame
We’re the molly-coddled Millennial - SJW’s and we’ve got society to blame

We got a 100 made-up pronouns, they’re impossible to recall
Gladly throw anyone in jail who refuses to memorize them all
You better not assume our gender, you can’t tell from how we’re dressed
The only thing we identify with is how horribly we are oppressed

My sister wears androgynous clothes, but to most she’s still a dame
We won’t tolerate intolerance - It’s not easy to mansplain
We’re the new Millennial - SJW’s and we’ve got society to blame
We’re the resentful Millennial - SJW’s and we’ve got society to blame

We may lack a sense of humour, tend to see everything in black and white
Anyone not wearing a pink pussy hat, must be part of the alt-right
We’ll post another temper tantrum on Youtube, when things don’t go our way
Seems like words have lost their meaning, can one be happy if they’re not gay?

When Madonna twerks with Michael Moore, we’re like moths to a flame
Take pride in being triggered, virtue signalling our shame
We’re the new Millennial - SJW’s and we’ve got society to blame
We’re the LGBTQ - SJW’s and we’ve got society to blame

We wear our beret’s like Che Guevara, military boots like Chairman Mao
We’ll all be entitled to union jobs, as soon as we move out of parent’s house
Punch a Nazi to protest violence, throw firebombs to protest war
Order our Starbucks every morning, through the window we broke the night before

Our tactics may be retarded and our arguments are lame
In any other universe, we’d be certifiably insane
We’re the new Millennial - SJW’s and we’ve got society to blame
We’re the Marxist Millennial - SJW’s and we’ve got society to blame

Through rainbow coloured glasses, we see the patriarchy all around
But only WE are allowed the privilege to burn the whole thing to the ground
And when the harsh reality of life intrudes upon our safe and sacred space
Just give us a therapy kitten and a shiny medal for last place

Gonna put our picture up in the crybaby hall of fame
We’re unique and precious snowflakes but we’re offended all the same
We’re the new Millennial - SJW’s and we’ve got society to blame
We’re the post-modern Millennial - SJW’s and we’ve got society to blame
We’re the perennial Millennial SJW’s and we’ve got society to blame
