Whose child stays and whose child goes Is not a matter of fate; it’s a matter of economics Whose child sings and whose child croaks Is just punishment for the worst crime of all
Whose child stays and whose child goes Is not a matter of fate; it’s a matter of economics Whose child sings and whose child croaks Is not subject to some kind of divine condemnation
There is no divine; there is only condemnation Human condemnation Political condemnation Economic condemnation
And empire clings to the last vestiges of its bloody entrails Yet these entrails eat, and breathe; and drink, and think; And sleep, and weep; and live, and love And the “Free” Market clings to the last vestiges of its bloody empires And children die in its wake But our leaders assure us; we’re not the wrong ones They’re the criminals, we’re innocent; they’re guilty Them. They. Their crime? Being born in the wrong part of the planet Their punishment? That’s not for us to decide, that’s God’s decision We have one obligation, and one obligation alone We must defend our privilege by any means necessary
Don’t worry, they tell us Their lives are less valuable They’re necessary human sacrifices In the name of freedom
Their lives are less valuable They assure us They’re just human sacrifices In the name of Freedom
We’re just protecting our freedom, almighty Freedom We’re just maintaining our lifestyle
Fulfilling the dream!
They are always the oppressor And we are always the oppressed They are always the instigator We always act in self-defense We only act in self-defense We only slaughter children in self-defenseTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
