ANTI-FLAG Stars And Stripes LYRICS |
| [03:24.84] |
|
| [00:35.34] |
welcoming with open arms and |
| [00:36.84] |
with open hearts |
| [00:39.84] |
in the end they found their arms in shackles |
| [00:42.64] |
and their hearts torn out |
| [00:45.16] |
this country named "america" |
| [00:47.58] |
is built on graves |
| [00:50.00] |
of the natives who lived here before |
| [00:52.11] |
genocide took place |
| [00:55.40] |
the word "america" means "freedom" - as in |
| [00:57.50] |
"free to kill the free..." |
| [03:17.89][03:08.36][03:03.47][02:58.05][02:47.31][02:42.41][02:37.18][02:27.38][02:22.67][01:58.02][01:48.16][01:43.44][00:59.32] |
don't fly those stripes |
| [01:05.05][01:00.30] |
those stars-and-stripes for me |
| [01:02.85] |
for me don't fly those stripes |
| [01:07.66] |
for me... For me! |
| [01:19.75] |
it's the same today as then |
| [01:21.06] |
as U.S. (tax) dollars are spent |
| [01:24.30] |
to rid the native insurgence in Mexico |
| [01:26.70] |
and any other U.S. (corporate) "interests" |
| [01:29.15] |
the 3rd world is a modern day playground |
| [01:31.30] |
for multinational companies |
| [01:33.62] |
and the tax dollars we're forced to pay |
| [01:35.42] |
fund these heartless U.S. policies |
| [01:39.57] |
their explanation... |
| [01:40.70] |
"it's national interest, national security..." |
| [03:09.78][03:04.62][02:38.37][02:28.63][02:23.76][01:59.29][01:49.23][01:44.49] |
those stars-and-stripes for me, for me |
| [03:13.37][02:52.69][02:32.35][01:53.10] |
they Stand for greed |
| [03:14.53][02:33.44][01:54.26] |
they stand for hate, for nothing i believe |
| [02:02.91] |
at little big horn national cemetery |
| [02:04.71] |
there's a monument that reads: |
| [02:07.82] |
"to the soldiers killed in montana while clearing |
| [02:10.39] |
hostile indians away... ' |
| [02:13.23] |
and there's a flag there flying high |
| [02:14.97] |
over the fallen killers' graves |
| [02:17.97] |
when they call on me to die for them |
| [02:20.08] |
i'll say... "not me!" |
| [03:19.57][02:59.41][02:48.55][02:43.53] |
those stars-and-stripes for me... |
| [02:53.92] |
they stand for hate |
| [02:55.33] |
for nothing i believe... |
