|
Like a chicken running without its head, Our country's debt is to its dead |
|
Under a sky so cold and gray, The youth of our country died before their day |
|
Not more than kids they stood for the flag, The government sent them home in bags |
|
Those young Americans will never see their homes, Now they sleep under gardens of stone |
|
(Chorus) |
|
{They died fighting a country that wasn't a threat Now this is our national debt} |
|
Commies in the east, money in the west put another bullet in a soldier's chest |
|
Who pays for the lines in his father's face, Not the politicians who breached their faith |
|
The men who fight for our nation, Shouldn't be sent to war by a corporation |
|
Democracy means one man one vote, Money has turned our government into a joke |
|
(Chorus) |
|
So when its time to start another pointless war, The first ones drafted are the poor |
|
With no money to buy a political voice, They're sent to die without a choice |
|
I'm an American, proud and free |
|
I'm an American I believe in equality |
|
Don't tell me what to do or what to be, I'm an American, Don't tread on me |
|
(Chorus) |
|
Who's gonna pay off the debt? |
