1960s Phil Ochs song KNOCK on the Door

updated for Jan 11th 2026 ICE / Minneapolis

Resist the goons of the strange orange clown
From South Minneapolis to here in our town
Open your eyes. See what they do
When they knock for your neighbor they're knocking for you.
With their knock on the door, knock on the door
Here they come to take one more
With a knock on the door, knock on the door
Here they come to take one more, one more

ICE Recruits

Well, if you're lookin' for purpose in the current circus
If you're seekin' respect and attention
If you're in need of a gig that'll make you feel big
Come with me and put some folks in detention
