W gets up on t.v.
Tells me we've got to fight to be free
Kill others and deny them the rights
Inaeliable to you and me
Be Patriotic
That's the new narcotic
He tells us we need to fight this war
Won't tell us what we're fighting for
Tells lies to all the congregations
Won't say it's a war for corporations
To him all the nations
Are nothing more than calculations
Hand over your heart
Pledge allegiance to the flag
They pick your pocket
Saying freedom is the price tag
Nothing for the masses that daily toil
But everything for big tobacco and oil
As blood begins to blanket the soil
In terror I recoil
To save freedom
You must spend
On your money
Our freedoms depend
It can't be me the only one who can see
How it's our money that makes us free
We can eliminate the poor
These are the words of a true power wore
Right now he's drawing the line
You're free to stand on either side
But those who choose wrong
Will be those who have died
It blows my mind
That in this day and time
A man like that can still exist
That's why I have to raise my fist
I'm not anti-America
I'm anti-thief
That's why you'll never hear me saying
Hail to the chief
