ANTI-FLAGYOU'VE GOT TO DIE FOR YOUR GOVERNMENT*Bolded are the lines most important to me You've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government? Die for your country? That's shit! There's a Gulf War vet, dying a slow, cold death And the government says, "We don't know the source of his sickness." But don't believe what they say, because your government is lying They've done it before and don't you know they'll do it again A secret test, government built virus "Subject Test Group: Gulf Battle Field Troops" You've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government? Die for your country? That's shit! First World War veterans slaughtered, by General Eisenhower You give them your life, they give you a stab in the back Radiation, agent orange, tested on US souls Guinea pigs for Western corporations I never have, I never will Pledge allegiance to their flag You're getting used, you'll end up dead! You've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government? Die for your country? That's shit! I don't need you to tell me what to do And I don't need you to tell me what to be... FUCK YOU! I don't need you to tell me what to say And I don't need you to tell me what to think! What to think! What to think, what to think, what to think, think, think, think! You've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government? Die for your country? That's shit! I don't think you should fight any stupid country's wars. I don't see any politicians fighting IN the war they just send off mindless civilians. Then they brainwash you to think you will be a hero and make you think killing is the greatest thing, but only if you're killing for them. This world is sick. |
