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, said I won't comply To be labelled as one of those who qualify to be shipped off To fight your fucking wars 'Cause war's not about policy, 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 figure head I'm a man of my own free will Our freedom's are slowly shredded as they take more than their fill How much power is ever enough for the men For the men on Capitol Hill They're cutting back on welfare They're illegalising 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 Yeah, I think I'd rather kill Oh mighty word democracy spell's 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 lire You were burning bright the day the country died In all your glory in all your pride Light the way the torch of Liberty Light the sky for the whole world to see In all your glory in all your pride
