Radical Annie (on 4 string metal guitar)

I wrote this a while ago, updated it a little. Guitar made by Shane Wagstaff.
Radical Annie
1.She’s got a Che Guevara poster, to which she prays from time to time
And from Karl Marx down to Lenin, she can quote you line from line
She’s a revolution’s angel, or so she’d have you believe
But though her denim jacket’s faded , she’s got gold on the sleeves
Chorus
They call her Radical Annie, she’s a freedom fightin’ girl
She won’t change her underwear, but she’s gonna’ change the world

2. Well she’s got a big rich Daddy, who she’s just about disowned
And she only takes his cheques, ‘cause the rent’s high in her zone
And she goes to all the meetings, and she can talk a bit herself
But when she gets you in the bedroom, man, she is something else
Chorus
They call her Radical Annie, she’s a freedom fightin’ girl
She won’t change her underwear, but she’s gonna’ change the world

3. Well she wakes up in the morning and she listens to the news
And screams at politicians for their “petty bourgeois views”
Then she wets her eyes with vodka, her emotions for to show
As she plays some early Dylan , on her retro stereo
Chorus
They call her Radical Annie, she’s a freedom fightin’ girl
She won’t change her underwear, but she’s gonna’ change the world

4. She's got her Facebook army, and they wait at her command
And they sign all the petitions that she shares on Facebook Land
The blind leading the blind, through rose glasses of "PC"
I don't know where she's going , but keep her away from me
Chorus
They call her Radical Annie, she’s a freedom fightin’ girl
She won’t change her underwear, but she’s gonna’ change the world
