The other day, I swear to God, I got a letter in the mail That said register with us or you're gonna go to jail You'll be put inside a cage, then forced to enlist
Well I laughed out loud and said, I won't comply To be labeled as one of those who qualify To be shipped off to fight your fucking wars
'Cause war's not about policy Or religion; it's about economy And I'm not dying to set your country free
I'll never bow to your expectations; I never have, I never will I'm not a puppet, pawn or figurehead; I'm a man of my own free will Our freedoms are slowly surrendered as they take more than their fill How much power is ever enough for the men, the men on Capitol Hill?
They're cutting back on welfare, illegalizing homelessness Am I the only one to see there's something wrong with this? I don't have the answers; won't pretend to say I will But to put my trust in government; I think, I think I'd rather kill
Oh, mighty word democracy spells freedom for you and me The books have all been written and the prophets denied Little by little, watch this state begin to fall As we awaken from this dream and find ourselves nailed to the wall
Oh, firecracker, patriotic lie You were burning bright the day the country died In all your glory, in all your pride
Light the way, torch of Liberty Light the sky for the whole world to see In all your glory, in all your prideTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
