  • The blood running down the blackboard on a blank(? ) screen (in a thin stream? )
  • The convicts shake their cages of a bad dream
  • And theyll coach you in the classroom that it cannot happen here
  • But it has happened here
  • I remember nothing that I memorized (the *****roach cops are crawling on a battle ground)
  • I got my education from a black eye (the shields are in the shadows, its a college town)
  • And theyll teach you law and order
  • If you dare to raise your hand
  • Spare the glove and spoil the man
  • Soldiers have their sorrow
  • The wretched have their rage
  • Pray for the aged
  • Its the dawn of another age
  • Of another age
  • Of another age
  • Thomas paine and jesse james are old friends
  • And robin hood is riding on the road again
  • We were born in a revolution and we died in a wasted war
  • Its gone that way before
  • The dogs are chasing chicken bones across the lawn
  • If that was an election, Im a viet cong
  • So I pledge allegiance against the flag
  • And the (fall,flaw,cloth? ) for which it stands
  • Ill raise/raze it if I can (pledge allegiance to the land)
  • Soldier have their sorrow
  • The wretched have their rage
  • Pray for the aged
  • Its the dawn of another age
  • Of another age
  • Of another age
  • Of another age
  • Of another age /pre>
