Wave your flag of freedom and democracy Red, white and blue lies for the masses to believe By the people, for the people, what a fucking joke Brainwash me to believe I can change things with my vote Democracy's a fallacy in this greatest of all lands 95 percent of the power lies in 5 percent of the hands The rich are getting richer, they grow fatter every day While the poor are getting poorer, they're just withering away (chorus) I've seen through the lies (and you believe them) That you've tried to force feed me And I've grown to despise (and you believe them) This bullshit that you call democracy Get them while they're young, before they learn the system stinks Teach them how to read and write, tell them what to think Blind them with your stars, gag them with your stripes Force memorization of information that will never help their lives Mold their virgin minds how you want them to be Reward thinking your way, punish creativity Limit their autonomy, destroy their self-esteem Then give them false hopes of the American dream You'll see me dead in a body bag Before you'll ever see me pledge allegiance to your star spangled rag Songtexte Your media tells stories of holocausts so far away But covers up atrocities right here in the USA Sick, impoverished people are dying in the streets But if their hearts pumped oil, health care would be free Wage your war on drugs each and every day Don't let the word get out that they're made by the CIA And dumped into the cities to keep the poor suppressed Because you're their biggest enemy and they're your biggest threat Aus Songtexte Mania
