SOLD EVERYTHING lyrics - Anti-Flag
Well, they sold all our bodies, collected our names
Sold all our fears, stole all our birthdates
Every thought we have exchanged for windfall
If they gave you nothing, you'd have nothing at all
Fuck all their borders and fuck all their wars
The violence of Wall Street and profiteer cures
Neoliberal white saviors, Murdoch and Fox News
Fuck the Pittsburgh Police and the president, too
(Whoa) They sold everything
(Whoa) They sold everything
No, you don't mean a goddamn thing
(Don't mean a goddamn thing)
(Whoa) They sold everything
(Whoa) They sold everything
(Whoa) They sold everything
(Whoa) No, you don't mean a goddamn thing
MODERN META MEDICINE lyrics - Anti-Flag (feat. Jesse Leach)
Self-serve it's all that you can eat
How will we pay, we're the commodity
We can never help ourselves
We want it all and nothing else
Market plan. Consumed, buy everything
Create desires and trade them publicly
The sweet smell of our excess
We choke and gag upon the stench
Every dime spared from the war fund
Another pill for us to choke on
On and on and on and on
We're never right, we're never wrong
And on and on and on and on
What's black is white, what's true is false
Take off my weary head
Fill us with medicine
We're all bogged down with dread
Fill us with medicine
Fill us with medicine
Under treat the pain, deny dignity
Subhuman graves robbed for the body
Indelible memory remains
The histories of abuse and shame
Same story, the character, a caricature
A premium paid, a misery ensured
Shocked by the inhumanity
Is this life of ours worth anything?
Every dime spared from the war fund
Another pill for us to choke on
On and on and on and on
We're never right, we're never wrong
And on and on and on and on
What's black is white, what's true is false
Take off my weary head
Fill us with medicine
We're all bogged down with dread
Fill us with medicine
Fill us with medicine
So we get, get, get what we deserve
So we try, try, try to bereave the interred
So we get, get, get what we deserve
This modern medicine
This modern meta medicine
This modern meta medicine
So let us in
This modern meta medicine
So let us in
This modern meta medicine
LAUGH. CRY. SMILE. DIE. lyrics - Anti-Flag (feat. Shane Told)
Can you hear me, hear me calling
I got this idea that I'm selling, for nothing
(Whoa whoa) Can anybody hear me?
(Whoa whoa) Does anybody care?
Can you hear me, hear me calling
I got this worry that we're falling, for nothing
(Whoa whoa) Is anybody listening?
(Whoa whoa) Is anybody there?
Flashback to 1983
Emphasize the uncertainty
The memo says the company
Turns truth into a theory
The lies they tell our children shaping everything we know
Turning fact into a fiction streamed on every single show
Packaged and rebranded so that it's consumed by all
Simplify the lyrics so the world can sing along
Can you hear me, hear me calling
I got this idea that I'm selling, for nothing
(Whoa whoa) Can anybody hear me?
(Whoa whoa) Does anybody care?
Can you hear me, hear me calling
I got this worry that we're falling, for nothing
(Whoa whoa) Is anybody listening?
(Whoa whoa) Is anybody there?
In the fluorescents of boardrooms
The proof disappears
In the darkness of the night
They prey on our fears
Now they're capping all the the questions, no accountability
The only answers given are the ones that keep them free
They knew it, they sold it then wrote it into law
To greenwash, to market, the cleanest death of all
Can you hear me, hear me calling
I got this idea that I'm selling, for nothing
(Whoa whoa) Can anybody hear me?
(Whoa whoa) Does anybody care?
Can you hear me, hear me calling
I got this worry that we're falling, for nothing
(Whoa whoa) Is anybody listening?
(Whoa whoa) Is anybody there?
Is anybody there?
Can you hear me, hear me calling
I got this idea that I'm selling, for nothing
(Whoa whoa) Can anybody hear me?
(Whoa whoa) Does anybody care?
Can you hear me, hear me calling
I got this worry that we're falling, for nothing
(Hey) Is anybody listening?
(Hey) Is anybody fucking there?
(Whoa whoa) Is anybody listening?
(Whoa whoa) Is anybody there?
THE FIGHT OF OUR LIVES lyrics - Anti-Flag (feat. Tim McIlrath & Brian Baker)
There's a dark cloud growing at the end of the road
There's a crowd of people left with nowhere to go
And I get so sick at the sight, it keeps me up at night
(It keeps me up at night)
There's a headline telling you that this is the end
There's no conversation, it's still us versus them
And I get so sick at the sight, it keeps me up at night
We're in the fight of our lives
Crossing over the lines
We'll never run, never hide
(Oh oh oh oh)
Wake up surrounded in flames
Holding onto our pain
Still some hope in our veins
(Oh oh oh oh oh)
I get so sick at the sight, it keeps me up at night
We're in the fight of our lives
There's a echo ringing that we're going to war
It's the same old story, they're still killing for sport
And I get so sick of the sight, it keeps me up at night
(It keeps me up at night)
We're in the fight of our lives
Crossing over the lines
We'll never run, never hide
(Oh oh oh oh)
Wake up surrounded in flames
Holding onto our pain
Still some hope in our veins
(Oh oh oh oh oh)
I get so sick at the sight, it keeps me up at night
We're in the fight of our lives
(Oh oh oh oh)
We're in the fight of our lives
(Oh oh oh oh)
We're in the fight of our lives
Wake up, to existential dread
Empires, they crumble in our hands
Phone call, no one on the other end
(No one on the other end)
Inside, to dispel the myth
So tired, we haven't done anything
Reach out, no one on the other end
(No one on the other end)
("The number you've dialed is not in service")
We're in the fight of our lives
Crossing over the lines
We'll never run, never hide
(Oh oh oh oh)
Wake up surrounded in flames
Holding onto our pain
Still some hope in our veins
(Oh oh oh oh oh)
I get so sick at the sight, it keeps me up at night
We're in the fight of our lives
(Oh oh oh oh)
We're in the fight of our lives
(Oh oh oh oh)
We're in the fight of our lives
IMPERIALISM lyrics - Anti-Flag (feat. Ashrita Kumar)
Did things my own way, made up my own rules
Took off a Sunday and stole all of your jewels
Moved into your house, you said can you move
I said, I'm goin', I'm goin' nowhere
I plan to fabricate a little holiday
And find myself a lovely, cozy place to stay
And if I like it I may never go away
Yeah!
And when I show up you'll be thrilled to let me in
Cause I got all you need to wash away your sins
Yeah, once you know me you'll realize I'm your best friend
You've been needing a new friend
I'm gonna be there till the end
Did things my own way, made up my own rules
Took off a Sunday and stole all of your jewels
Moved into your house, you said can you move
I said, I'm goin', I'm goin' nowhere
The heads of state are drinking up their vintage wine
While blowin' smoke on human rights and apartheid
From Pittsburgh, PA all the way to Palestine
Yeah!
I'll tell you who's your enemy and who to trust
If you don't like it, I don't really give a fuck
I'm rolling heavy and I'm tired of your distrust
You see your loyalty's a must...
You better bring it, motherfucker
Did things my own way, made up my own rules
Took off a Sunday and stole all of your jewels
Moved into your house, you said can you move
I said, I'm goin', I'm goin' nowhere
And the sun keeps shining down
On the hills and city streets of this fair town
What once and what is now are futile
To break down, to break down
Did things my own way, made up my own rules
Took off a Sunday and stole all of your jewels
Moved into your house, you said can you move
I said, I'm goin', I'm goin'...
I'm goin' nowhere, nowhere
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm goin' nowhere, nowhere
Oh, oh
Did things my own way, made up my own rules
Took off a Sunday and stole all of your jewels
Moved into your house, you said can you move
I said, I'm goin', I'm goin' nowhere
VICTORY OR DEATH (WE GAVE 'EM HELL) lyrics - Anti-Flag (feat. Campino)
When the world starts burning ring the bell, ring the bell
We can say we can say we were there when it fell
Hear the voice of the choir fare thee well, fare thee well
We gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell
We gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell
You were born far away in the pouring rain
Dreaming I would meet you there someday
Well, I don't know your story and I don't know your name
But I can tell you that you won't die in vain
When the world starts burning ring the bell, ring the bell
We can say we can say we were there when it fell
Hear the voice of the choir fare thee well, fare thee well
We gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell
We gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell
When you come face to face with the weight of your fate
(Will you) Count your blessing or just count your mistakes?
When the sun begins to set on the things you never did
Will they haunt you or the ones you have left?
To the end of the day nothing left but to raise up a glass to the lost and the brave
You may be buried in a grave that is marked with no name
But I'll be thrown down in a hole just the same
To arms the brave
Unknown soldiers wait
March on, march on to our very last breath
It's victory or death...
When the world starts burning ring the bell, ring the bell
We can say we can say we were there when it fell
Hear the voice of the choir fare thee well, fare thee well
We gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell
We gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell
When the world starts burning ring the bell, ring the bell
We can say we can say we were there when it fell
Hear the voice of the choir fare thee well, fare thee well
We gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell
We gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell
We gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell, gave 'em hell
THE HAZARDOUS lyrics - Anti-Flag
Confined, separate and polarized
Maintained, condoned and designed
No relief and nowhere left to hide
Hell trapped in cracks of the pavement
Decline, compound abandonment
No escape and nowhere left to repent
Insolence only crime
Inside our own lives
Injustice resides where the weapon resides
Locked out, locked up
They've got their gun to our heads
Same war, same chains
Same house always wins
The bottom line defines the hazardous redline
They've got their gun to our heads
Blood thirst, watch the interest hike
Blockbust, forced fed hunger strike
Their ghosts hang in the poisoned air
Insolence only crime
Inside our own lives
Injustice resides in everything that we buy
Locked out, locked up
They've got their gun to our heads
Same war, same chains
Same house always wins
The bottom line defines the hazardous redline
They've got their gun to our heads
There's only hell inside
There's only hell outside
But the structures are all rotten
In the maps of the forgotten
Our dignity, our liberty is all or nothing
Locked out, locked up
They've got their gun to our heads
Same war, same chains
Same house always wins
The bottom line defines the hazardous redline
They've got their gun to our heads
Locked out, locked up
They've got their gun to our heads
Same war, same chains
Same house always wins
The bottom line defines the hazardous redline
They've got their gun to our heads
Locked out, locked up
Same war, same chains
Same house always wins
Locked out, locked up
The hazardous redline
They've got their gun to our heads
SHALLOW GRAVES lyrics - Anti-Flag (feat. Tré Burt)
In the lotteries of stolen fate
To clear the way, gas up the trade
To rape the soil to the end days
Where they bury our soul in a shallow grave
In a shallow grave
Gold mountain ghost, spirit remains
For the destitute, for the cast away
Manifest destiny to fill our shame
Where they bury our soul in a shallow grave
In a shallow grave
In a shallow grave
In a shallow grave
In a shallow grave
Bodies piled on the border lines
Shots of patron in the friendly skies
Futures detained on the Rio Grande
Will wash their blood right off your hands
In a promised land
In a promised land
In a promised land
What promise?
We are the warmth of the other suns
Five hundred years of violence undone
We are the sins that you will not forget
The broken promise of the innocent
We are the warmth of the other suns
Five hundred years of violence undone
We are the sins that you will not forget
The broken promise of the innocent
WORK & STRUGGLE lyrics - Anti-Flag
Work and struggle, and be grateful for it
Work and struggle, and death
Work and struggle, and be grateful for it
Work and struggle for less
Work and struggle, and be grateful for it
Work and struggle, and death
Work and struggle, and be grateful for it
Work and struggle for less
There's blood on the banks of homestead
There's blood in the banks of Wall Street
Robert Owens gave birth to the 8 hour day
The boss wants it down in a grave
Poison the rivers, slaughter the cows
Build up the prisons, burn forests down
Food to the landfill, patent the seeds
They waste your labor, and your dignity
They want to use you up, and steal your soul
They want to use you up, and steal your soul
Work and struggle, and be grateful for it
Work and struggle, and death
Work and struggle, and be grateful for it
Work and struggle for less
Perpetuate violence, surveilled privacy
Serving evictions, deny basic need
Following orders, just do what you're told
They'll leave you with nothing, just a flag to fold
They rob the world blind, never pay for their crimes
They've got us trained like rats
So we organize on the boss' dime
We don't have to live like this
Like this, like this
They want to use you up, and steal your soul
They want to use you up, and steal your soul
Bleed you to death 'til there's nothing left
Bleed you to death 'til there's nothing left
They're gonna bleed you to death 'til there's nothing left
They'll bleed you to death
Work and struggle, and be grateful for it
Work and struggle, and death
Work and struggle, and be grateful for it
Work and struggle for less
Work and struggle for less
NVREVR lyrics - Anti-Flag (feat. Stacey Dee)
Cut throat and don't look back
As if gifted by the zodiac
With the key that's gonna unlock my own path
Catastrophe is guaranteed again
'Cause your payoff is with a moral sin
Well, somehow, that idea always got under my skin
But you never got into my head
You never got into my head
Attack after attack
When living in this nightmare is a total laugh
I never, ever, ever
Never, ever, ever
And when the wolves attack
There ain't no ground that I'm ever giving back
I never, ever, ever
Never, ever, ever
Much like a poison kiss
Bittersweet, infamous
The villain's gift comes with a hitch
Slick and pretty with a warm embrace
Behind the veil there is a sacrifice
The time will come when you don't wanna pay that price
And they never got into my head
No, they never got into my head
Attack after attack
When living in this nightmare is a total laugh
I never, ever, ever
Never, ever, ever
And when the wolves attack
There ain't no ground that I'm ever giving back
I never, ever, ever
Never, ever, ever
All the struggles of the world make me hate you evermore
All the struggles of the world make me hate you (Make me hate you)
All the beauty of the world makes me hate you evermore
All the beauty of the world makes me hate you (Makes me hate you)
And I hate you
And when the wolves attack
There ain't no ground I'm giving back
Attack after attack
When living in this nightmare is a fucking laugh
I never, ever, ever
Never, ever, ever
And when the wolves attack
There ain't no ground that I'm ever giving back
I never, ever, ever
Never, ever, ever
And when the wolves attack
There ain't no ground I'm giving back
You better fucking know it
And when the wolves attack
There ain't no ground I'm ever giving back
ONLY IN MY HEAD lyrics - Anti-Flag
All the glory that I've seen
It's only in my head, only in my head
Their amber waves of greed
It's only in my head, only in my head
In a cubicle or a locked cell
The profit builds a living hell
Raze monuments to thieves
But it's only in my head, only in my head
They're after me
Where no one's free
The house created by their greed
Is not the goddamn home that we need
They're all after me
Forget the death, the pain
It's only in my head, only in my head
All in the name of the state
It's only in my head, only in my head
Foundation born of hate
All the cancer it creates
Slow death only fate
But it's only in my head, it's only in my head
They're after me
Where no one's free
The house created by their greed
Is not the goddamn home that we need
They're all after me
Lost in the light of spectacle
Ban all the books, padlock the schools
Never knowing our reality
When everything is a conspiracy
All the glory that I've seen, it's only in my head...
They're after me
Where no one's free
The house created by their greed
Is not the goddamn home that we need
They're all after me
Hate Conquers All lyrics - Anti-Flag
"In the good ol' days this doesn't happen because they used to treat them very very rough. And when they protested once, they would not do it again so easily."
Hate conquers all
In the ashes of the fall
With our backs against the wall
With our backs against the wall
Watch the empire fall
Watch the nation dissolve
With our backs against the wall
With our
The new disorder of the impoverished nation state
The endless cycle, divide and manipulate
Never give in to the sympathy
Never give in to reality
No one could save us
So build up and lock the gate
Never give in to a sensory
Never give in to the honesty
No one could save us
Hate conquers all
In the ashes of the fall
With our backs against the wall
With our backs against the wall
Watch the empire fall
Watch the nation dissolve
With our backs against the wall
With our backs against the wall
The same masters who made us their fuckin' slaves
Are now our saviors I'm so sick of needing to be saved
Never give in to the sympathy
Never give in to reality
No one could save us
"And you know what? The audience swung back. And I thought it was very appropriate. The audience hit back. And that's what we need a little bit more of."
Hate conquers all
In the ashes of the fall
With our backs against the wall
With our backs against the wall
Watch the empire fall
Watch the nation dissolve
With our backs against the wall
With our backs against the wall
Hate conquers all
In the ashes of the fall
With our backs against the wall
With our backs against the wall
Watch the empire fall
Watch the nation dissolve
With our backs against the wall
Hate conquers, hate conquers all
It Went Off Like A Bomb lyrics - Anti-Flag
And it went off like a bomb
Incinerating, unforgiving
Gone...
No recovery, no pretending
Collision course - it's just a wreck
Shock and awe - no turning back
Nothing left to say or be done
It went off like a bomb
In the dark, in a place where no one sleeps
In the veins of extremist war
There's a message in the words that they speak
There's an action that they're callin' for
They make hallow all the shallow
Accidents of birth and reign
Zealot scum fucks kill for fame
We erase their names
And it went off like a bomb
Incinerating, unforgiving
Gone...
No recovery, no pretending
Collision course - it's just a wreck
Shock and awe - no turning back
Nothing left to say or be done
It went off like a bomb
Dog whistles endlessly
Storm troopers in the wings
Gin up the devotees
Certain they're under siege
Division sewn to yield a firestorm
Another product of the new norm
You think you're safe? It won't be too long
Until it all goes wrong
And it went off like a bomb
Incinerating, unforgiving
Gone...
No recovery, no pretending
Collision course - it's just a wreck
Shock and awe - no turning back
Nothing left to say or be done
It went off like a bomb
Yeah went off like a bomb
Yeah went off like a bomb
20/20 Vision lyrics - Anti-Flag
I had a 20/20 vision
Of the last of the wrongs undone
No more hate, no division
No one is free until the war is won
Is there an answer to the question?
When will this come to its end?
Or do we just keep on repeating
All the things that the loathsome did?
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Tell me, which side are you on?
Carry on, carry on, carry on
One by one
Now there's a silence on the radio
Now there's a hole right through our heart
And the last of the wicked
Waiting to tear us all apart
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Tell me, which side are you on?
Carry on, carry on, carry on
One by one
I had a 20/20 vision
Of the last of the wrongs undone
No more hate, no division
No one is free until the war is won
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Tell me, which side are you on?
Carry on, carry on, carry on
For the people or the gun?
Carry on, carry on, carry on
One by one
One by one
One by one
One by one
Christian Nationalist lyrics - Anti-Flag
History is rife with the likes of you
History is littered with the likes of you
We'll never back down in the face of the likes of you
Never back down in the face of the likes of you
You're no better than the rest
White neo Christian nationalist
Religious law your litmus test
White neo fascist supremist
Off on the crusade of a century
With a vengeance in your veins for your enemies
Hate in your heart and division in your eye
You got queers to convert, you got lies to entice
And I can show you a compassionate authoritarian
Corrupted patriotism sold as nationalism
Your theocratic beliefs are a moral weapon
Full of venom Armageddon
You're no better than the rest

We reject theocracy
We reject your view of the world

Don't Let The Bastards Get You Down lyrics - Anti-Flag
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't run for cover when you hear that sound
Oh, no...
Don't let the bastards get you down
Screaming back at home on a cracked phone
There's no one to hear you when they just don't want to know
No cleaning up the mess they left in a nowhere town
The future just contains what we put into it now
Open up the windows of your boxed in art
Open the prison gates, open up your heart
You no longer sleep quiet once you've opened up your eyes
Only when the truth is recognized
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't run for cover when you hear that sound
Don't be afraid, you're not alone
Our only hope is the unknown
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't run for cover when you hear that sound
Don't be afraid, you're not alone
Our only hope is the unknown
Don't let the bastards get you down
Open up the windows of your boxed in art
Open the prison gates, open up your heart
You no longer sleep quiet once you've opened up your eyes
Only when the truth is recognized

Don't run for cover when you hear that sound
Don't be afraid, you're not alone
Our only hope is the unknown

Don't run for cover when you hear that sound
Don't be afraid, you're not alone
Our only hope is the unknown
Don't let the bastards get you down
We refuse to be highrised
Inventoried, merchandised
Indoctrinated by things we're told to fear
We refuse to be cast aside
Ridiculed and normalized
Worried by things we're told to fear
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't run for cover when you hear that sound
Oh, no...
Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't let the bastards get you down

Don't let the bastards get you down
Don't run for cover when you hear that sound
Don't be afraid, you're not alone
Our only hope is the unknown
Don't let the bastards get you down down down
Unbreakable lyrics - Anti-Flag
When I get knocked down I get back up again, yeah
Backed by my family and my friends, yeah
A vicious culture leaves us lost in life
Fuelled on anger, fuelled on spite
Watch the phoenix risin' up
This ain't no fucking joke
Unbreakable
Unbreakable, today
Unbreakable
In every single way
No, don't let them back you against the wall, yeah
And make you feel like you're nothing, nothing at all
No, we're not broken and we don't scare
Keep your acclaim because we don't care
What doesn't kill us now
Will lead us back from Hell
Unbreakable
Unbreakable, today
Unbreakable
In every single way
Unbreakable
Ready to face the world
Unbreakable
And I'm ready to feel
To feel the sharp shock of the phoenix risin'
Rising out of the east
Rising with the sun
And the moment you realize
That nothing can keep you down
Hard times come and go
Roll with the punches
Everything they throw
Look sharp and tell yourself
You're gonna make it through
Unbreakable
Unbreakable, today
Unbreakable
I'm never gonna change
Unbreakable
Unbreakable, today
Unbreakable
In every single way
Unbreakable
It's time to face the world
Unbreakable
And I'm ready to feel
To feel the sharp shock of the phoenix risin'
The Disease lyrics - Anti-Flag
We are the fire in the attic
We are the voices in the static
You have a sickness
And we are the disease
That brings you to your knees
Misery loves the company
Apathy is feeding the machine
Carried in the heart of kings and queens
And we are the disease, we are the disease
We are the disease
We are the disease
Critical shutdown of false virtue
The viral outbreak to kill the untruth
You have a cancer
And we are the disease
That brings you to your knees
Misery loves the company
Apathy is feeding the machine
Carried in the heart of kings and queens
And we are the disease, we are the disease
We are the disease
We are the disease
Yeah we are the disease
We are the roll call of the pursuit
(The misery, the company)
We are the echo of violent truth
(Your apathy feeds the machine)
We are the whisper of the lit fuse
(You're a disgrace of the disease)
We are the voices and we reject you
(We reject you, and we reject you)
Misery loves the company
Apathy is feeding the machine
Carried in the heart of kings and queens
Misery loves the company
Apathy is feeding the machine
Carried in the heart of kings and queens
And we are the disease, we are the disease
We are the disease
We are the disease
Yeah we are the disease
A Nation Sleeps lyrics - Anti-Flag
A nation sleeps
Another stays hungry and doesn't dare to dream
The success we seek
Trickles down to a gutter where the prison bars meet
Foundations weak
Add more stress to the cracks in the balance sheet
But please don't speak
The earth is a product, save the receipt
We are cultured
Commute, work
Commute, sleep
We are cultured
Commute, work
Commute, sleep
In a society (In a society)
That abolishes all things (That abolishes all things)
To abolish society (To abolish society)
Is the only thing
We are cultured
Commute, work
Commute, sleep
We are cultured
Commute, work
Commute, sleep
Those who make
Freedom halfway
Are those who dig
Their own graves
Those who make
Freedom halfway
Are those who dig
Their own graves
We are cultured

We are cultured
Commute, work

You Make Me Sick lyrics - Anti-Flag
When I think about you, you make me sick
You're a maniac, a liar, you're piece of shit
A cynical, condescending, hypocrite
Everything you do, you make me, make me sick
There's a cancer in the room and it ain't goin' nowhere
Salt rubbed in a wound, a council of despair
I wish I could care less, more than I can admit
There's no turning it off, there's just no way to make it quit
When I think about you, you make me sick
You're a maniac, a liar, you're piece of shit
A cynical, condescending, hypocrite
Everything you do, you make me, make me sick
And there ain't no coming back from the words you vomit
A pain inside my chest that I can't stomach
I wish I could careless, more than I can admit
There's no turning it off, there's just no way to make it quit
The sound of your voice
The look of your grin
The smell of your breath
The waste of your skin
The hate in your eyes
The spite of your kin
Just goes on and on
It just never ends
The sound of your voice
The look of your grin
The smell of your breath
The waste of your skin
The hate in your eyes
The spite of your kin
Just goes on and on
It just never ends
When I think about you, you make me sick
You're a maniac, a liar, you're piece of shit
A cynical, condescending, hypocrite
Everything you do, you make me, make me sick
You make me sick
You make me sick
You make me, you make me, you make me
You make me, you make me, you make me sick
Un-American lyrics - Anti-Flag
The bottom floor of a cold building
Promised a career and a diamond ring
Glass ceiling above, nothing under her feet
"Honey, just give me a smile, how hard can that be..."
Life at 26 ain't what she thought it would be
Now she's waking up from an American Dream
No rain falls to a spoiled land
Who is un-American, un-American?
No peace comes from a greedy hand
Who is un-American, un-American?
Factory floor, that they told him would stay
Another line sold on another campaign
The churches decay by his grandparents grave
A town exchanged for the money they saved
Life at 36 ain't what he thought it would be
Now he's waking up from an American Dream
No rain falls to a spoiled land
Who is un-American, un-American?
No peace comes from a greedy hand
Who is un-American, un-American?
Apartment floor, to the stadium
The roar of the crowd and the marching drums
All his life they taught him how to run
Shot in the back, the jury was the gun
No rain falls to a spoiled land
Who is un-American, un-American?
No peace comes from a greedy hand
Who is un-American, un-American?
Resistance Frequencies lyrics - Anti-Flag
Hear the echo ringing in the chambers of their power
The state of our ruin, clocking just over an hour
The victims are just props in a public execution
Of justice, freedom, liberty in neofascist movements
It's not a dying planet that's made you less free
Is it the brown child, that we've caged publicly?
Is it the pharmaceutical that's fueling our disease?
The cartels, the fentanyl, the howling coyote...
Who's gonna stop, who's gonna stop
Who's gonna stop the bomb
Who's gonna stop, who's gonna stop
Who's gonna stop the bomb
Are you gonna watch it fall?
Or are you gonna heed the call?
Carried out on resistance frequencies
And now it's wall or nothing to glorious applause
You trample over anyone to make you feel tall
There's a concentration camp being built along your border
Another world is possible, when we refuse the order
Who's gonna stop, who's gonna stop
Who's gonna stop the bomb
Who's gonna stop, who's gonna stop
Who's gonna stop the bomb
Are you gonna watch it fall?
Or are you gonna heed the call?
Carried out on resistance frequencies
Are you gonna watch it fall?
Or are you gonna heed the call?
Carried out on resistance frequencies
Born To Run lyrics - Anti-Flag
Born to run from the law
Born to run from the order
Born to run from the cop
Born to run from the border
This is a farewell kiss, you dog, you fucking snake
Born to run from the law
Born to run from the order
Born to run from the cop
Born to run from the border
This is a farewell kiss, you dog, you fucking snake
I curse the myth we're fed
I calculate the dead
I know the mission hasn't been accomplished yet
15 years of war means 100 more
And that may be where we only begin
I heard Katrina cry
I saw torture denied
I choked and suffocated on the smoke 'em out lie
Maybe the answers we need won't be sold on a screen
Is it the opioids?
The CIA?
The CNN?
The Coca-Cola in our veins?
No one could see disaster staring right in our face?
Is it the air we breathe?
The Flint water stream?
The next iPhone?
Or the Fair Trade coffee?
You gotta start somewhere, if you wanna get nowhere
I won't believe the lie
I wont concede our peace
I now that no righteous words have been written to decease
Crash and burn, toss and turn, somehow we were never prepared
I heard Katrina cry
I saw torture denied
I choked and suffocated on the smoke 'em out lie
Maybe the answers we need won't be sold on a screen
Is it the opioids?
The CIA?
The CNN?
The Coca-Cola in our veins?
No one could see disaster staring right in our face?
Is it the air we breathe?
The Flint water stream?
The next iPhone?
Or the Fair Trade coffee?
You gotta start somewhere, if you wanna get nowhere
Action not reaction as the world decays
As we scream out loud like hell in civil war charades
Stand together as one in the acid rain
Kneel at our bedsides, speak to god we pray
Born to run from the law
Born to run from the order
Born to run from the cop
Born to run from the border
This is a farewell kiss, you dog, you fucking snake
Fight Like Hell lyrics - Anti-Flag
Who we are, how we trust and love
Where we stay, what we choose, who we fuck
Are we not enough
The walls have ears, your ears have walls
Set up to fail, to take the fall
Are we not enough
Bite your tongue to kill the mundane
Grind your teeth to get through one day
Weather out the storm just to save some time
Fight like hell just to stay alive
Survive the test of time
Woah, woah
The barricades close the street
But open the way
Our only chance is to be free
To participate
Watching culture pattern like the weather
Our words in the wind like a feather
Are we not enough
Are we still not enough
Bite your tongue to kill the mundane
Grind your teeth to get through one day
Weather out the storm just to save some time
Fight like hell just to stay alive
Survive the test of time
Survive the test of time
Woah, woah
Survive the test of time
Woah
Who we are, how we trust and love
Where we stay, what we choose, who we fuck
Are we not enough
American Attraction lyrics - Anti-Flag
Yeah
There's no escaping the American attraction
A bait and switch that's gonna thrill you with distraction
It sounds so good, you can't resist the satisfaction
When it's all over you'll be crying, I'll be laughing
Yeah
I got that gun, got that drug
I've got everything you want
Got that bomb, got that blood
I've got everything you're not
It's the American attraction
It's the American attraction
The clock tick-tick-tick-ticking down to a disaster
Your insecurity is all they're coming after
This propaganda so impossible to resist
Where ideology replaces being honest
I got that gun, got that drug
I've got everything you want
Got that bomb, got that blood
I've got everything you're not
It's the American attraction
It's the American attraction
You think it's a circus the truth is it's a strategy
American beauty twisted into a tragedy
Out in a blaze of glory
You got your gun, got your drug
You got your bomb, got your blood
And now we've had enough
I got that gun, got that drug
I've got everything you want
Got that bomb, got that blood
I've got everything you're not
It's the American attraction
It's the American attraction
It's the American attraction
It's the American attraction
Yeah
The Criminals lyrics - Anti-Flag
The game we play is life and death
Your worth measured in dollars and in cents
There ain't no lifeline coming (coming!)
Unless you pay the price (the price!)
Your hope, freedom, your sanity
A product, not a right
These are the days that test your heart and soul
Strap yourself in for the American Fall
Day after day it is all crash and burn
A nation hijacked by the criminals
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh
Yeah
Your neighbor is your enemy
Your real friends are on the TV
They’re selling lies and self-loathing
Nothing no one should pay to be
The cost of healthcare, the cost of guns
The cost of knowledge, the cost of love
When prison is an industry
Somebody’s getting locked away
Uninvited to the party
They're cold, afraid and starving
There's gotta be more
To the millions who are marching
Than a separation of just a few degrees
Between evil, famine and the disease
These are the days that test your heart and soul
Strap yourself in for the American Fall
Day after day it is all crash and burn
A nation hijacked by the criminals
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh
Reject the criminality
That monetizes our humanity
Construct a new reality
Where you're not just a number, you're a name
We'll never have our dignity
Till all you fascists are six feet deep
When The Wall Falls lyrics - Anti-Flag
If they come for you in the night
They will come for me in the morning
If they come for you in the night
They will come for me in the morning
Look outside your window, there's a woman being grabbed
They've voted with their reverence and a Bible in their hand
Maybe we should go outside and try to stop her pain
But the anthem's started playing and I'd hate to miss the game
Sweating in the ghetto with the panthers and the poor
The rich will do it all for you but help you off the floor
Would their hope become a riot if the dream wasn't a rot
But they've got their welfare pennies and besides we've got the cops
If they come for you in the night
They will come for me in the morning
If they come for you in the night
They will come for me in the morning
Now there's a dirty paper using sex to make a sale
They're all surprised the turnout and the outcomes were a fail
Maybe we can help their pain and speak the truth online
But we're busy reading Playboy and the Sunday New York Times
If they come for you in the night
They will come for me in the morning
If they come for you in the night
They will come for me in the morning
Well you're safe now in the fire light
No we don't need another warning
If they come for you in the night
They will come for me in the morning
I'll see you when the wall falls
If they come for you in the night
They will come for me in the morning
If they come for you in the night
They will come for me in the morning
Well you're safe now in the fire light
No we don't need another warning
If they come for you in the night
They will come for me in the morning
I'll see you when the wall falls
Trouble Follows Me lyrics - Anti-Flag
Yeah alright
Here we go
Here we go
So here we go again, no hope for you and less for me
The walls are going up, no way to break through
They steal the riches of the world, just to keep us all at bay
One thing that I can say for sure, you know that trouble follows me
(Trouble, trouble)
Trouble in a way you just can't believe
(Trouble, trouble)
Trouble always finds its way back to me
Hard work will set you free, now that's a fuckin' dream
The cycle of our poverty, the strength of their chains
'Cause even when I laid down low, just to keep above the fray
One thing that I can say for sure, you know that trouble follows me
(Trouble, trouble)
Trouble in a way you just can't believe
(Trouble, trouble)
Trouble always finds its way back to me
(Trouble)
Trouble in a way you just can't believe
(Trouble)
Trouble always finds its way back to me
A rebel womyn, she lived a wild life
She'd rather roses on the table, than diamonds on her neck
Knowing she'd never go home, until the day she could no longer breathe
She said, "This ain't the life I envisioned for me"
She said, "This ain't the way that I thought it would be"
She said, "This ain't the way it was supposed to be"
She said, "I don't regret a thing, though trouble follows me"
Yeah, trouble follows
(Trouble, trouble)
Trouble in a way you just can't believe
(Trouble, trouble)
Trouble always finds its way back to me
(Whoa oh oh oh)
Trouble in a way you just can't believe
(Whoa oh oh oh)
Trouble always finds a way and trouble follows me
Trouble follows me
Yeah, trouble follows me
Trouble follows
Finish What We Started lyrics - Anti-Flag
From the top now
Okay
Alright
Everyone just wants to fucking breathe
Nobody can, and everyone believes
We will breathe later and they won't die
But truthfully they were never alive
To question the society you live in
You gotta call yourself in question
To question the answers you're given
You gotta call yourself in question
Because a cop lives inside of all our heads
We're gonna kill him dead, we're gonna finish what we started
A boss lives inside of all our heads
We're gonna kill him dead, we're gonna finish what we started
We don't need a world where a guarantee
A starvation death, impossibility
In every home a new car, a new TV
Bringing the risk of dying of boredom
To question the society you live in
You gotta call yourself in question
To question the answers you're given
You gotta call yourself in question
Because a cop lives inside of all our heads
We're gonna kill him dead, we're gonna finish what we started
A boss lives inside of all our heads
We're gonna kill him dead, we're gonna finish what we started
A cop lives inside of all our heads
We're gonna kill him dead, we're gonna finish what we started
A boss lives inside of all our heads
We're gonna kill him dead, we're gonna finish what we started
We're gonna finish what we started
We're gonna finish what we started
Only hope comes from the hopeless
We're gonna finish what we started
Only soul comes from the soulless
Because a cop lives inside of all our heads
We're gonna kill him dead, we're gonna finish what we started
A boss lives inside of all our heads
We're gonna kill him dead, we're gonna finish what we started
A cop lives inside of all our heads
We're gonna kill him dead, we're gonna finish what we started
A boss lives inside of all our heads
We're gonna kill him dead, we're gonna finish what we started
We're gonna finish what we started
We're gonna finish what we started
Liar lyrics - Anti-Flag
I was ripped wide open like I never been before
Give me, give me, give me, give me, give me chemicals
Kept me coming back, yeah, kept me coming back for more
Give me, give me, give me, give me, give me chemicals
Where do you go when they don't love you anymore?
Do you need another reason to feel insecure?
There's a beautiful beach under the paved concrete
Give me, give me, give me, give me, give me chemicals
We've fallen further so far, I think I'm finally free
Give me, give me, give me, give me, give me chemicals
Where do you go when they don't know you anymore?
Do you need another reason you're a prisoner?
I'll never trust you, you're just a liar
Closing the border of the fallen empire
I never thought that it would end like this
A finger on the button and a trigger to the kids
I'll never trust you, you're just a liar
Closing the border of the fallen empire
I never thought that it would end like this
Closing the border of the fallen empire
Well we only see the prices in the spectacle
Give me, give me, give me, give me, give me chemicals
Only the young make love, only the old look bored
Give me, give me, give me, give me, give me chemicals
Where do you go when they don't love you anymore?
Do you need another reason to feel insecure?
I'll never trust you, you're just a liar
Closing the border of the fallen empire
I never thought that it would end like this
A finger on the button and a trigger to the kids
I'll never trust you, you're just a liar
Closing the border of the fallen empire
I never thought that it would end like this
Closing the border of the fallen empire
You're just a liar, a liar, a liar
You're just a liar, a liar, a liar
Digital Blackout lyrics - Anti-Flag
Brainwashed, radicalized
Born to kill, born to die
Strategize and weaponize
Enemy airwaves full of lies
So here we go again, mission: detonation
Compliments of the new world order
This is the new disorder

Digital blackout
Digital blackout

Targeted, terrorized
Sanctified and sanitized
Whitewashed, politicized
For war we live, for peace we die
So here we go again, mission: detonation
Compliments of the new world order

Digital slavery, digital soldier
Digital enemy, over and over
Digital tragedy, digital closure
Over and over, over and over

I Came. I Saw. I Believed. lyrics - Anti-Flag
Where you gonna go when the superstores close
They segregate you, but integrate your dough
What you fighting for when they kick you out the door
Before it ends you, you gotta end the war
The truth
I came. I saw. I believed
In what we can achieve
Find a way to finally breathe
And we
We won't ask you for a thing
We will demand for nothing
We will occupy and take everything
Here he come old flat top, he come shooting up the night
He doesn't have to worry, they're the wrong color of white
Bashing the fashion, voluntary right
Asleep in the parade, you're gonna lose the fight
Washing away the stains
Drinking away their pain
Send it across the nation
You're wasted
The truth
I came. I saw. I believed
In what we can achieve
Find a way to finally breathe
And we
We won't ask you for a thing
We will demand for nothing
We will occupy and take everything
Where you gonna go when the superstores close
They segregate you, but integrate your dough
What you fighting for when they kick you out the door
Before it ends you, you gotta end the war
Racists lyrics - Anti-Flag
We say "No, not in our name."
It's in the things that you say and you don't say
You don't know it cause you're such a fuckin' cliche
The way you define them & us
Those you fear and those you trust
You know a black guy and he's very articulate
You know a Mexican and she's honest and diligent
You don't see color but some people need discipline
A thug is a thug, some people need to learn a lesson
Your justifications, one dead give away
Your qualifications, one dead give away
You'd never endorse the Jim Crowe days
But the malice in your voice is a God damn give away
Just 'cause you don't know you're racist
A bigot with a check list
Just 'cause you don't know you're racist
You don't get a pass when you're talkin' your shit
Just 'cause you don't know you're racist
A bigot with a check list
Just 'cause you don't know you're racist
You don't get a pass, get a pass for your ignorance
Black lives matter and you don't know why
And reverse racism isn't a real thing
No you weren't alive in the time of slavery
But that's no excuse to ignore its legacy
Not afraid of refugees
But don't want a mosque built on your street
Offended by the claim of bigotry
More than the racism in your face
Your justifications, one dead give away
Your qualifications, one dead give away
You'd never endorse the Bull Connor days
But the malice in your voice is a God damn give away
Just 'cause you don't know you're racist
A bigot with a check list
Just 'cause you don't know you're racist
You don't get a pass when you're talkin' your shit
Just 'cause you don't know you're racist
A bigot with a check list
Just 'cause you don't know you're racist
You don't get a pass, get a pass for your ignorance
You fly the flag of the Confederacy
You say to celebrate your history
The South was fighting to save slavery
To preserve and protect white supremacy
Just 'cause you don't know you're racist
A bigot with a check list
Just 'cause you don't know you're racist
You don't get a pass when you're talkin' your shit
Just 'cause you don't know you're racist
A bigot with a check list
Just 'cause you don't know you're racist
You don't get a pass, get a pass for your ignorance
Just 'cause you don't know you're racist
Just 'cause you don't know you're sexist
Just 'cause you don't know you're fascist
You don't get a pass for your ignorance
Just 'cause you don't know you're racist
Just 'cause you don't know you're sexist
Just 'cause you don't know you're fascist
You don't get a pass, get a pass for your ignorance
Throw It Away lyrics - Anti-Flag
You're going through the motions
Destroying our emotion
And praying on devotion
It's just a game
There's something in the water
Sold your sons and sold your daughters
The voices getting stronger
It's just a game
You've been handed everything just to throw it away
You've been passing off the blame just to spit in our face
A portrait of a version of the worst of our days
You've been handed everything just to throw it away
It's just a game
The cracks in the foundation
And the fall of your nation
Nero's song an apparition
It's just a game
You've been handed everything just to throw it away
You've been passing off the blame just to spit in our face
A portrait of a version of the worst of our days
You've been handed everything just to throw it away
It's just a game
When your bloodline is a product
And your privilege is a construct
You've been handed everything
Just to throw it away, just to throw it away
In their failure we are made strong
Rebuilding what has been undone
You've been handed everything
Just to throw it away, just to throw it away
You're going through the motions
Destroying our emotion
You've been handed everything just to throw it away
You've been passing off the blame just to spit in our face
A portrait of a version of the worst of our days
You've been handed everything just to throw it away
It's just a game
It's just a game
It's just a game
It's just a game
You're going through the motions
Destroying our emotion
Casualty lyrics - Anti-Flag
All of the scrutiny, I feel the eyes fall down upon me
Is it amnesty? Or is it hang me from the gallows?
Committed to the conviction I carry with me
When I'm afraid of my name, I know I'm not free
Turn it up loud
Just to take it all away
Turn it up loud
Yeah just to take it all away
Turn it up loud
Just to take it all away
Try to shut us down but we won't be another casualty
No, we won't be another casualty
No, we won't be another casualty
Born in the USA
The fear, the guilt, the worry
All the shame and hate
The rat race and the hurry
Turn it up loud
Just to take it all away
Turn it up loud
Yeah just to take it all away
Turn it up loud
Just to take it all away
Try to shut us down but we won't be another casualty
No, we won't be another casualty
No, we won't be another casualty
Saints and sinners
Traders and thieves
Crooks and killers
Thugs and police
Turn it up loud
Just to take it all away
Turn it up loud
Yeah just to take it all away
Turn it up loud
Just to take it all away
Try to shut us down but we won't be another casualty
Turn it up loud
Just to take it all away
Turn it up loud
Yeah just to take it all away
Try to shut us down but we won't be another casualty
We won't be another casualty
No, we won't be another casualty
We won't be another casualty
No, we won't be another casualty
A Dying Plea Vol. 1 lyrics - Anti-Flag (feat. DE'WAYNE, Marcia Richards, Jálise Della Gary & Tom Morello)
We can't breathe
We can't breathe
We can't breathe
We can't breathe (breathe), breathe (breathe)
Breathe (breathe), breathe
I know you looking for a victim to kill - I know you
I know you looking for a son to steal - I know you
You wanna catch me slipping down on my heels
For a moment to boast and shout "Look at this nigga I killed"
But what about my rights?
What about my life?
We ain't equal to them
If they ain't kill us
Slamming us down
Saw the tape on CNN
Got a call from my mother
You bet not go outside again
Got a call from my father
Like put a damn gun to they head
BANG
With others oppressed no one is free
(No one is free)
When just to breathe is a dying plea
Your freedom falls only skin deep
Out of reach like an American Dream
Out of reach like an American Dream
The blue lines cross at demand and need
Raze the statues from the hanging tree
Out of reach like an American Dream
Out of reach like an American
We can't breathe
We can't breathe
We can't breathe
We can't breathe (breathe), breathe (breathe)
Breathe (breathe), breathe
Well I'm unbelievably out of breath
I remember inna school that respect wasn't there
Imagine what a fool, I'd step where the other girls stepped
I'd forget that I checked and the step wasn't there
I know underneath another layer lies another liar
Out come the wolves from their wool to deny our rights
Buckle up, watch it take a turn until your luck is up
We got the backup and we'll say their names until you're gone
With others oppressed no one is free
(No one is free)
When just to breathe is a dying plea
Your freedom falls only skin deep
Out of reach like an American Dream
Out of reach like an American Dream
The blue lines cross at demand and need
Raze the statues from the hanging tree
Out of reach like an American Dream
Out of reach like an American Dream
How long must we wait
For all of this to change?
The fear, the death, the pain
Will it ever go away?
How long must we wait
How long?
(How long?)
When just to breathe is a dying plea
Your freedom falls only skin deep
Out of reach like an American Dream
Out of reach like an American
We can't breathe
We can't breathe
We can't breathe
We can't breathe (breathe), breathe (breathe)
Breathe (breathe), breathe
We can't breathe

Melanin, I know on the other side when they see my face
Melanin and only melanin leave trace
They'll step to protect their right to forget the debt that they owe my race
Suckle at the teat and they get a likkle treat like a lifetime in first place
All the innocent are gonna suffer when they gun out and nuh means to decide on why, while all them and the others will protect them, discard us, throw us at the back or under the bus, scream we'll serve and protect not trust, stick to the colour guide, watch better be the right swatch and nuh care about us.
We can't breathe...
We can't breathe...
We can't breathe...
We can't breathe...
Breathe...

I left the crib in my white tee, yeah bitch I'm icy
The public think I'm thuggin, shots fired now my tee blooded
These fucking cops ain't rushing a nigga dead they love it
Turn the body cam off while we calling for our mothers
BITCH I been feeling some evil deeds
I might kill a cop let the trigger squeeze
24 years years being black a scary thing but I still gotta die a legend if they come for me
Only care for us when we on a tee
We tired of singing songs I want a bullet in they head
Middle of the street that's on everything fucking let me be
We can't breathe...
We can't breathe...
We can't breathe...
We can't breathe...
Breathe...
Breathe...
Black in America breaking the barriers
Cops killing us that's serial
Land of milk and honey no cereal
Preaching the real
Politicians vote and passing the bills
You posting a square while blacks in the street getting murdered and killed
Rap industry we takeover for real
Driving While Black get you out of your deal
Killing the game left you out of the will
Writing this live from the City of Steel
Karens they lie you get Emmitt Tilled
Karens they lie you get Emmitt Tilled
Now how does that feel
Turning the tables you don't get a meal
Seat at the table that eating for real
Officers kneel until you can't breathe
Kaepernick kneel can't play for a team
When just to breathe is a dying plea
Your freedom falls only skin deep
Out of reach like an American Dream
Out of reach like an American Dream
We can't breathe...
We can't breathe...
We can't breathe...
We can't breathe...
Breathe...
Breathe...
We can't breathe...
All Cops Are...A-Z lyrics - Anti-Flag
All cops are assholes
All cops are bastards
All cops are court controlling cunts
All cops are dickheads
All cops are evil
All cops are farm animal fucking fucks
All cops are greedy
All cops are hate criming
All cops are incorporated
All cops are jag offs
All cops are killers
All cops are lie, lying, liars
All cops are miserable
All cops are Nazis
All cops are onanists
All cops are pedaling pricks
All cops are queefs
All cops are racists
All cops are sadists
All cops are twats
All cops are unbelievably unchecked
All cops are vicious
All cops are wastes of water
All cops are xenophobic
All cops are you
All cops are you
All cops are you
All cops are you
Branded Rebellion lyrics - Anti-Flag
Branded rebellion
Safe enough for all
Sweat the assets
Cash out before it's gone
Placement, visibility
No context needed at all
Out of pocket credibility
In the loop with the calm
We laugh, ain't it funny, how we sell our souls
We laugh, ain't it funny, how our morals fall
You still wanna be an artist?
When the straw man calls
Ego strokes and fine dining
Impulse buys results
Placement, visibility
No context needed at all
Out of pocket credibility
In the loop with the calm
We laugh, ain't it funny, how we sell our souls
We laugh, ain't it funny, how our morals fall
We laugh, ain't it funny, success erases it all
We laugh, ain't it funny, how easy conscience is sold
For What It's Worth lyrics - Anti-Flag
(originally by Buffalo Springfield)
There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware
I think it's time we stop
Children, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
There's battle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking' their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind
It's time we stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
What a field day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly saying, "hooray for our side"
It's time we stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
You step out of line, the men come and take you away
Stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
Stop
Hey, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
Stop
Now, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down?
Stop
Children, what's that sound?
Everybody look - what's going down
Gimme Some Truth lyrics - Anti-Flag
(originally by John Lennon)
I've had enough of reading things
By neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians
All I want is the truth (the truth)
Just give me some truth (truth)
I’m sick and tired of hearing things
From uptight, short-sighted p-p-p-punk rockers
All I want is the truth (the truth)
Just give me some truth
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of Tricky Dicky
Is going to mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of hope
Money for dope
I'm sick to death of seeing things
From tight-lipped, condescending, mama's little chauvinists
All I want is the truth (the truth)
Just give me some truth now
I’ve had enough of watching scenes
Of schizophrenic, egocentric, paranoiac, prima-donnas
All I want is the truth now (the truth)
Just give me some truth
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of Tricky Dicky
Is going to mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of hope
It's money for dope
Choke! [x16]
All I want is some truth now (woah)
Just give me some truth now
[x8]
Mr. Motherfucker lyrics - Anti-Flag
Okay, what Stagger Lee say
You're gonna end up dead
Mr. Motherfucker, you know who I am
You're gonna end up dead
From the depths of the 400 club
To the rivers running red
Stacks 'em high, he's 44
Stagger Lee [?]
Like a Chinese whisper
Words spread around
[?] he's walking tipsy
Never to be found
Mr. Motherfucker, you know who I am
You're gonna end up dead
Mr. Motherfucker, you know who I am
You're gonna end up dead
Gotta say that bad man you see
So damn bad in the summer
The flies stay from Stagger Lee
Gotta say that bad man you see
So damn bad in the winter
The snow don't fall off Stagger Lee
Have you heard about that bullet
That come to town
Are you looking for for that bullet
It must be found
You're gonna end up dead
You're gonna end up dead
You're gonna end up dead
You're gonna end up dead
You're gonna end up dead
You're gonna end up dead
You're gonna end up dead
You're gonna end up dead
Mr. Motherfucker, you know who I am
You're gonna end up dead
Surrender lyrics - Anti-Flag
Mother told me, yes, she told me
That I'd meet boys like you
She also told me, "Stay away
You'll never know what you'll catch"
Just the other day I heard
Of a soldier's falling off
Some Indonesian junk
That's going 'round
Yeah
Mommy's alright
Daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender
Surrender
But don't give yourself away
Hey, hey
Father says, "Your mother's right
She's really up on things
Before we married, Mommy served
In the WACs in the Philippines"
Now, I had heard the WACs recruited
Old maids for the war
But mommy isn't one of those
I've known her all these years
Mommy's alright
Daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender
Surrender
But don't give yourself away
Hey, hey
Whatever happened to all this season's
Losers of the year?
Every time I got to thinking
Where'd they disappear?
But when I woke up, Mom and Dad
Are rolling on the couch
Rolling numbers, rock and rollin'
Got my cash records out
Mommy's alright
Daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender
Surrender
But don't give yourself away
Way, way
Away
Away
Surrender (Mommy's all right)
Surrender (Daddy's all right)
But don't give yourself away
Surrender (Mommy's all right)
Surrender (Daddy's all right)
But don't give yourself away
Surrender (Mommy's all right)
Surrender (Daddy's all right)
(We're all alright)
But don't give yourself away
(We're all alright)
Surrender (Mommy's all right)
Surrender (Daddy's all right)
(We're all alright)
But don't give yourself away
(We're all alright)
We're all alright! [x4]
That's When I Reach For My Revolver lyrics - Anti-Flag
(originally by Mission of Burma)
Once I had my heroes
Once I had my dreams
But all of that is changed now
The truth begins again
The truth is not that comfortable, no
Mother taught us patience
The virtues of restraint
Father taught us boundaries
The knowledge we must go
I'm trying to protect my unity
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when it all gets blown away
That's when I reach for my revolver
The spirit passes by this way
A friend of mine once told me
His one and only aim
To build a giant castle
And in it sign his name
Sign it with complete community
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when it all gets blown away
That's when I reach for my revolver
The spirit passes by this way
Now that the sky is empty
And that is nothing new
Instead they look upon us
When they tell me
That we're nothing
That's when I reach for my revolver (I say!)
That's when I reach for my revolver (I say!)
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when I reach for my revolver
The New Jim Crow lyrics - Anti-Flag
I can't help but shed a tear for you tonight
Because we know nothing can ever make it right
Your days cheated away
Never given a chance to clear your name, no
Please accept my sincere apologies
Please accept my sincere apologies
For the heartless, for the useless
For the people who have no soul left to give
For the heartless, for the useless
For the people only looking out for themselves
For themselves
Welcome to the new America
Welcome to the new Jim Crow
Welcome to a world gone out of control
I said, picked up, set up, sent down
Case opened closed
I said, picked up, set up, sent down
Case opened closed
Please accept my sincere apologies
Please accept my sincere apologies
For the heartless, for the useless
For the people who have no soul left to give
For the heartless, for the useless
For the people only looking out for themselves
For the people only looking out for themselves
Picked up, set up, sent down, opened, closed
Picked up, set up, sent down, opened, closed
Picked up, set up, sent down, opened, closed
Picked up, set up, sent down, opened, closed
Please accept my sincere apologies
Please accept my sincere apologies
For the heartless, for the useless
For the people who have no soul left to give
For the heartless, for the useless
For the people only looking out for themselves
For the people only looking out for themselves
For the people only looking out for themselves
The War On Christmas Is Over (If You Buy It) lyrics - Anti-Flag
Alright!
Armed to the teeth, jack boots on our feet
As we kick in your front door
Setting fire to the tree, all the presents beneath
And destroying you, pagan whores
Overhead drones are flying, the children will be crying
Try and lock all your doors
But not enough of you are buying
So this year you're dying
Merry Christmas, this means war
This is the war on Christmas
Your names made our shit list
This is the war on Christmas
Happy new fear
Armed to the teeth, jack boots on our feet
As we kick in your front door
So we send seasons beatings, 'til you are believing
Our savior is white as snow
There will be no relieving, this pain you are feeling
Merry Christmas, this means war
This is the war on Christmas
Your names made our shit list
This is the war on Christmas
Happy new fear
This is the war on Christmas
Your names made our shit list
This is the war on Christmas
Happy new fear
Everyone will spread this cheer
Everyone will disappear
Everyone will spread this cheer
Everyone will disappear
Will disappear, will disappear
This is the war on Christmas
Your names made our shit list
This is the war on Christmas
Happy new fear
This is the war on Christmas
Your names made our shit list
This is the war on Christmas
Happy new fear
Welcome To 1984 lyrics - Anti-Flag
Who would Jesus bomb? Yeah, who would Jesus kill?
The double talk is past surreal
The word of god is now the word of hate
War is peace, and freedom is the police state
Can't you see the writing on the wall?
Democracy lays trampled on the floor...
You better believe that...
Hell yeah I'm confused for sure what I thought was the New Millennium is 1984!
Mr. Orwell from the grave, adding fresh ink to the page
As the unpresident declares an endless war...
Welcome to 1984!
Feels like Nazi Germany, and Hitler on TV,
As the unpresident spews homophobic speech
Didn't the Allies fight a war to end extremist fascist law
So tell me NOW what are the fuck we fighting for?
I just can not take it anymore
Democracy lays trampled on the floor...
Man, isn't freedom great?!?!
Hell yeah I'm confused for sure what I thought was the New Millennium is 1984!
Mr. Orwell from the grave, adding fresh ink to the page
As the unpresident declares an endless war...
Now we've got...
Armies of peace, armed to the teeth, delivering death to make the world a better place
So celebrate the weapons spending, say a toast to Armageddon, raise some hell!
We're all headed straight to hell!
Hell yeah I'm confused for sure what I thought was the New Millennium is 1984!
Mr. Orwell from the grave, adding fresh ink to the page
As the unpresident declares an endless war...
Welcome to 1984!
