My father told me son, it's futile to resist,
You can topple ideology but not the armies, they enlist.
I questioned the intentions of the boy scouts chanting war.
Well that's the sound of freedom, son he said. (free to say no more.)
But wait a minute dad, did you actually say freedom?
Well, if you're dumb enough to vote,
You're fuckin dumb enough to believe 'em.
Cuz if this country is so goddam free.
Then I can burn your fucking flag wherever I damn well please,
* //*// 2X
And I will stick the fucking flag up your ass
I carried their anthem, convinces it was mine.
Rhymeless, unreasoned conjecture kept me in line.
then I stood back and wondered what the fuck had they done to me.
Made accomplice to all that I'd promised I would never fucking be. Never be.

You carry their anthem convinces that it's yours.
Initiation to honor - invitation to war.
Bette midler now assumes sainthood.
Romanticize murder for moral.
Tie a yellow ribbon round the oak tree my friend,
And gee wally, that's swell!
Fuck the troops to hell!
Fuck the troops to hell!
Here's how to play the chords.
