Anti-Flag - Stars And Stripes Lyrics
welcoming with open arms and with open heartsin the end they found their arms in shackles and their hearts torn outthis country named "america" is built on gravesof the natives who lived here before genocide took placethe word "america" means "freedom" - as in, "free to kill the free..."chorus:don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for meit's the same today as then, as U.S. (tax) dollars are spentto rid the native insurgence in Mexico, and any other U.S. (corporate) "interests"the 3rd world is a modern day playground for multinational companiesand the tax dollars we're forced to pay, fund these heartless U.S. policiestheir explanation... "it's national interest, national security..."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' graveswhen they call on me to die for them i'll say... "not me!"
