No Borders, No Nations lyrics - anti-flag

I always thought if you want to change the world
Then you have to start with yourself
So if the heads of state want to end terrorism
They should go ahead and kill themselves

I will not sign my blind faith away
To an unjustly leader of the unjust police state
Corporate masters live in their cess pool
Of extreme wealth and excess
Whoa Oh

The phrase world leaders
Does not describe the heads of state
Those few in power
Work only for the corporate sake
No action, no interest, no humanity at all
As the corporate towers rise up
They watch the people fall

A governement run by the corporations of the world
Enslaving mothers, fathers, sons, and daughters
Profits put before people
Equal force, equal reaction
Equal suppression, equal intimidations
Equal propaganda, equal rebellion

We've got to make a change
No religions, sexual preference
And regardless of your race
We've got to make a change
No war, corporate run
Governements, no police state
We've got to make a change
For the good of the human race
And you still look me in the eye
And you still wonder why
Your cities fucking burn

No borders, no nations
No flags, no patriots

Gifts From America: With Love, The U.S.A. lyrics - anti-flag

The world keeps turning and I keep fighting
'cause what else are you to do?
When there's a fascist telling you,
"It's time you were put in your place!"
As he salutes the Stars and Stripes
By raising fists and starting fights,
Like an aberration from Hitler's Nazi Riech

NOT PROUD - Of my skin
NOT PROUD - Of where I live
I'm fucking proud of who I am!

National pride inside you
Building you up, or limiting you?

Everyone keeps asking,
"Why's he so pissed and so angry?"
When there's killing in this world,
of men and womyn, boys and girls
For the sake of a dividend gain
These actions proclaimed in our name,
turn Stars and Stripes to shades of shame
"Gifts from America: With Love, The U.S.A"

NOT PROUD - Of my skin
NOT PROUD - Of where I live
I'm fucking proud of who I am... I AM HUMAN!

National pride inside you
Building you up, or limiting you?
Fighting for what on the battlefield?
Humanity? Corporate control and greed?

This country's flag flies as a corporate symbol
This country's flag strikes hearts with fear-COLD FEAR!
This country's flag represents oil interests
The president wages an endless war so he can,
Justify stealing fucking billions
Steal the public's rights through the use of fear, use of fear...
That is a system I can not endorse

National pride inside you
Building you up, or limiting you?
Fighting for what on the battlefield?
Humanity? Corporate control and greed?
Look for the truth you'll see...
MADISON AND JEFFERSON
ARE TURNING IN THEIR GRAVES!

The Freaks, Nerds, & Romantics lyrics - anti-flag

[Originally by Bouncing Souls]

I got a song stuck in my head
Walking down street number nine
I sing it out loud with my friends
And we're all having a good time
We all waited for weeks
Now we're hanging on the street in NYC
We gotta go to the show
Even though we're all underage
Outside the firehall in PA
It rained on three hundred kids all day
When the cops shut it down no one went away

We're Gonna Play No Matter What They Say

Three or four people showed up in Albuquerque
The alternator died
Somewhere between Mankato and Rapid City
Strangers in some strange lands in L.A.
The enchiladas made us sick but that's ok
Growing Up
We didn't want to be like them
It was tough to know
Who were our friends
Killing time playing basements
Way back when
In a lot of ways nothings changed
From now and them
Some say they have been let down
I wonder why they still hang around
I wonder where all these good things could be
Then I realize that somehow I found them in me

We're Gonna Play No Matter What They Say

Ever Fallen In Love lyrics - anti-flag

[Written by Pete Shelley]

You spurn my natural emotions
You make me feel like dirt
And I'm hurt
And if I start a commotion
I run the risk of losing you
And that's worse

Ever fallen in love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
You shouldn't've fallen in love with

"Underground Network" (2001)




Angry, Young And Poor lyrics - anti-flag

GO.......OH YEAH.............GO

he knows he'll be alone tonight,
while contemplating, "What can i do?"
The lack of hope leaves him feeling violent,
it's not that he's looking for a fight,
it's just... he don't know where to turn,
more stress than help,
from home and school,
and on the streets his life's out of control...

Angry, young and poor!
Angry, young and pissed!
Angry no one cares!
[x2]

She never even had a chance,
mental, sexual, physical violence
not once she heard an encouraging word,
just the phrase, "you better shut up!" and "you're going nowhere!"
her sad stories,
all left untold
so her life became something,
so out of control...

Angry, young and poor!
Angry, young and pissed!
Angry no one cares!
[x2]

don't know where to turn
don't know what to do...

Angry, young and poor!
Angry, young and pissed!
Angry no one cares!

Politicians talk it up,
about their love, for the USA's youth
But when it comes time to put up,
their rhetoric falls back on every excuse
every excuse, every excuse...

Angry, young and poor!
Angry, young and pissed!
Angry no one cares!
[x2]

don't know where to turn
don't know what to do...

Angry, young and poor!
Angry, young and pissed!
Angry no one cares!

This Machine Kills Fascists lyrics - anti-flag

We've run out of patience,
You've run out of time !
This scene will not fall victim
To your violence or lies.

Your "values" are nothing
But excuses to start fights.
Quit fronting like you're standing
For a moral cause tonight...

United as one, we won't stand aside,
You tried to fuck with our scene... We're gonna fuck your life !!!

This machine, this machine. This machine... THIS MACHINE,
KILLS FUCKING FASCISTS !
Dead... That's right, DEAD !

You don't have to be a rascist,
To be a nazi, fuck !
Your mindless nationalism
Gives you credentials enough.

You spew your right wing rhetoric,
When we got your attention...
You've mistaken the punk scene
For the Republican Convention !

No more infiltration, no more right wing lies,
You don't belong in our scene... We'll fight you till we die !!!

This machine, this machine. This machine... THIS MACHINE,
KILLS FUCKING FASCISTS !
Dead... ahhh... DIE !

Underground Network lyrics - anti-flag

The national media cover Clinton/Lewinsky
While the world's governments sell out millions on the issue of free trade
But somewhere in the night -- A force is not asleep
And a massive organization plans to rise up to its feet...
It happens like this...

A pirate radio voice transmits into the night
And from D.C. to Peking email warns of lost global rights
And the hoax the world's leaders, wanted no one to see
Comes crashing on their heads from grass roots
Striking it down the blows coming for the world's...

Just take a look around the world

Vieques, Puerto Rico: Bikini Revisited lyrics - anti-flag

All united, all as one, let's make a stand...
We've got a privilege in the power that we command !
So let's not drown in ignorance,
And let our strenght waste away...
As the richest nation in the world, we've got a responsibility !

Vieques, Puerto Rico, a pretectorate -- of the USA.
Part a home for native families, the rest...
A NAVY BOMBING RANGE !!

Shells misfired kill civilians there,
And napalm hangs in the island air.
But the government beats down protests against this misuse...

So...

STAND UP, FIGHT BACK, RESIST-REFUSE !!
'Cause if we don't do it, no one's going to...
So,
STAND UP, FIGHT BACK, RESIST-REFUSE !!
'Cause if we don't do it, no one's going to...

I look into the eyes, of a dead island boy's face.
His (eyes) remind me of another's,
From a different time and place...

Where A-Bombs baked the ground,
Of Bikini's tropical lands.
Where a culture was erased,
Families misplaced,
BY A NAZI-ESQUE LIKE PLAN !!!

All done, in your name, by Uncle Sam...
So if we don't fight it, then we're guilty to !

So...

STAND UP, FIGHT BACK, RESIST-REFUSE !!
'Cause if we don't do it, no one's going to...

I think it's 'bout time that we had a change...
I think it's 'bout time that WE MAKE A CHANGE !!

Stars And Stripes lyrics - anti-flag

welcoming with open arms and, with open hearts
in the end they found their arms in shackles and their hearts torn out
this country named "america", is built on graves
of the natives who lived here before, genocide took place
the word "america" means "freedom" - as in, "free to kill the free..."

don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me, for me
don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me, for me... For me!

it's the same today as then, as U.S. (tax) dollars are spent
to rid the native insurgence in Mexico, and any other U.S. (corporate) "interests"
the 3rd world is a modern day playground, for multinational companies
and the tax dollars we're forced to pay, fund these heartless U.S. policies
their explanation... "it's national interest, national security..."

don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me, for me
don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me, for me
they Stand for greed, they stand for hate, for nothing i believe
don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me, for me

at little big horn national cemetery, there's a monument that reads: "to the soldiers killed in montana while clearing
hostile indians away... '
and there's a flag there flying high, over the fallen killers' graves
when they call on me to die for them i'll say... "not me!"


don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me, for me
don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me, for me
they Stand for greed, they stand for hate, for nothing i believe
don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me, for me

don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me...
don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me...
they Stand for greed, they stand for hate, for nothing i believe...
don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me...

don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me, for me
don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me, for me
they Stand for greed, they stand for hate, for nothing i believe
don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me... me... me!!!

Watch The Right lyrics - anti-flag

watch your right watch your left watch the right watch the center and watch your back!

it's on the radio, it's on the TV news
conservatives and liberals
with ever clashing views but as the days go by
i can't tell which side is talking their left is in the center
and labeled "liberal doctrine"

they do nothing for you...
they do nothing for me... no!
they give us nothing to believe
watch your right watch your left watch the right watch the center and watch your back! [x2]

let the feds pass a law, that takes your rights away cause
"you gotta sacrifice if you want to stay safe!"
til the day you find the feds in your back pocket
locking you away for saying, "question", "think", or "stop it"

they do nothing for you...
they do nothing for me... no!
they give us nothing to believe
watch your right watch your left watch the right watch the center and watch your back! [x2]

joseph mccarthy and reagan
set the motherfuckin' stage for the right leanings that now grip the u.s.a.
they framed and jailed the reds
lost the keys to the cell set up
the capitalist machine to go in for the kill... yeah... yeah... yeah...

social divisions encouraged by the few - few!
those few in power - suckerin' suckers like you - you!
as corporate welfare, flows from troughs of the state - state!
yeah big business, takes more than their fair take - take!
but in the end it is suckers like you - you!
who buy that the poor, are givin' you the screw - screw!
can't you realize that it's just talk, talk, talk, talkin'...
like tax men at your door, fuckin' knockin' knockin' knockin'...
watch your right watch your left watch the right watch the center and watch your back! [x4]

The Panama Deception lyrics - anti-flag

their 2 + 2 does not equal 4 their 2 + 2 equals whatver, they want us to die for about face! - snap to attention form your own conclusions to the things you see about face! - sometimes the explanations don't add - up to the facts time and again they manufacture a cause and rally the public around it, check out the movie "wag the dog" killing - to further the interest of private corporations killing - to control global economic situations killing - for fuckin' truth you won't be so quick to sign on! our lives reflect tv sitcoms and tragedies like a bad joke, i ask, "how many of you don't see...? and just how many... how many of you swallow the lies...? how many of you do not realize...?" Gung ho and true - to the stars and stripes they fuckin' brainwashed you, to do their bidding... and like a flock of sheep - with wool over your eyes you never stop to question - you just fall into line the media's a business, that provides entertainment heir bottom line: money, and stories that will make it... so they run with stories, that promotes the lies to keep the ratings coming, wealth from promoting world strife life must be so easy, when you don't have to think black and white like printing, from the newspaper's ink i wish i had the chance, to reveal the lies but you're so fucking brainwashed, would it even help to try... to get through... to you! to get through, through, through, through, through, through... to get through to you!

Culture Revolution lyrics - anti-flag

Get ready to - make a stand
Get ready to - make a move
Because if - we don't- fuckin' do it - then no one's going to!
No!

Have you seen the scene on the street?
Do you care what's - going on?
Thousands – homeless - in the land of the free but no one seems to think it's wrong!
That’s why we fuckin' wrote this song

Take to the streets - cause it's time to make a stand
We’re not gonna back down! Culture revolution!
Take to the streets - cause it's time to make a stand
We're not gonna back down! Culture revolution!
This ship is sinking - it's time we set it right
Take to the streets - cause it's time to make a stand
We're not gonna back down! Culture revolution!

When the standards of - society
Are based - solely on greed
Humanity - compassion
Do not - define what it means to succeed!
No!

For the poor - contempt and hate
From the rich - middle class, the state
Compassion - dumped for
Apathy - the greatest nation ever seen?
That’s fuckin' real hard to believe

Take to the streets - cause it's time to make a stand
We’re not gonna back down! Culture revolution!
Take to the streets - cause it's time to make a stand
We're not gonna back down! Culture revolution!
This ship is sinking - it's time we set it right
Take to the streets - cause it's time to make a stand
We're not gonna back down! Culture revolution!

Socialized – socialized
Mechanized – mechanized
To consume... everything in the world!
Saturate – saturate
Accumulate – accumulate
Your happiness... can be bought and be sold!
Environment – environment
Detriment – detriment
Is not... an issue of concern!
Humanity – humanity
Or this insanity – insanity
The choice is yours and your choice alone!
But you won't be alone no, you won't be alone... YEAH!

Take to the streets - cause it's time to make a stand
We’re not gonna back down! Culture revolution!
Take to the streets - cause it's time to make a stand
We're not gonna back down! Culture revolution!
This ship is sinking - it's time we set it right
Take to the streets - cause it's time to make a stand
We're not gonna back down! Culture revolution!

Revolution!
In your head!
On the streets!
Move!

Bring Out Your Dead lyrics - anti-flag

Spend a lifetime working for these people
To make what they earn in one day
There are options to choose, I call it Social Progress
Progress to not be abused

They were arrested for their views
It was the protesters they screwed
And still had the nerve to ask
Who I was voting for
Cause when you silence our youth
Then you silence the truth
Our right not to remain...

YEAH!!!

Start funding lives that move for changes
Not funding leaders that oppress and use
When politicians become nothing more but major corporations
Posing as humans, real humans lose...

They were arrested for their views
It was the protesters they screwed
And still had the nerve to ask
Who I was voting for
Cause when you silence our youth
Then you silence the truth
Our right not to remain...
SILENT!!!

I won't remain
I won't remain silent
I won't remain
I won't remain SILENT!!!!

Bring out your dead...
Oppression
Intimidation
Suppression
