The fascists gnaw away at the foundations
Grinding away, constantly grinding away,
They say a rat can chew through steel
By grinding away, its teeth regenerating

The fascists building over the centuries
The infrastructure of domination
Putting in the real hard, labor and time
The years of brutality, decades
Of fear-mongering, the murder and war.

And when the foundation is eaten away
And weak, the structure collapses -
Our structure, our humanity …
Busy little beavers, these fascists,
Working underneath us right now
