The Lyrics

I have gotten quite interested in the new Greater Idaho movement lately. I had to decide whether to use this song or The Clash's song "Should I Stay or Should I go", when it comes to writing about this. I think I made the right choice.
Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoo

(Verse 1)
You’re moving to your new Greater Idaho
Moving to your new Greater Idaho
Protecting forests with land to sough
Leave where taxes are kept low
Welcome the new folks
Red millions of folks
You get Coos Bay tax right away
With new jobs for these folks

(Chorus)
You’re moving to your new Greater Idaho
You’re moving to your new Greater Idaho
Federal land, no Antifa threat (Your new Greater Idaho)
Watching the gridlock stop, building more crops (Your new Greater Idaho)
(Whoa, oh, Whoa-oh)
Don’t let the cost of living hurt
Oregon’s power is overt
That’s(Yeah)
Expected of you at the urban populous blue, blue, blue land

(Verse 2)
You’re moving to your new Greater Idaho
Idaho
Unemployment low, buy guns with ammo
You turn your back on people in black to Idaho*
Come enter this state, come enter this state to live
Just so you’re aware

You’re moving to your new Greater Idaho
You’re moving to your new Greater Idaho

Join where taxes are low (Your new Greater Idaho)
Federal land (Your new Greater Idaho)
Industry is keen and Andy Ngo can be seen
Walking in the fields as hemp grows up
Up as mini,-mum wage is low
It’s a yes or a no

You’re moving to your new Greater Idaho
Where could you go to another state that votes the same?
Well, don’t let the state say it’s not so
Jefferson CA can join if it wants+
To the balkanized front, of the brand new, USA

I-I-I-daho
I-I-I-daho
Woah oh oh woah oh oh woah oh oh
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Come enter this state
Come enter this state
You’re moving to your new Greater Idaho
Movin’ to your new Greater…Idaho
* = That implies all the rioters who dress in black not the skin tone. + = Phase 2 of expanding Idaho's borders involves taking in the northern county of California. For more information on bringing in new state borders, go to greateridaho.org.
