"the protest song"
~ anti-flag ~
and so the time has finally come
the bourgeoisie has signed the war decree with proletariat blood
and that blood which flows from their pen
is the closest that they've ever been to the people
you've been to our shows
you've sung our songs
now we're asking you to add to each chorus you've sung and
protest against injustice, state terror
on the streets of the world
for the disempowered
you've sung at our shows
cheered right over wrong
now it's time to hit the streets
back up those words you've sung
because our voices alone this time will not get it done
looking to stop a rogue regime?
well the first one that we must confront is WASHINGTON, DC!
the bush "terror war", UNCONSTITUTIONAL, UNCONSCIONABLE
we refuse to let him kill, in our name for oil
we know their game
know they're corrupt
it's up to us to hit the streets, time to take our rights back
protest against injustice, state terror
on the streets of the world
for the disempowered
you've sung at our shows
cheered right over wrong
now it's time to hit the streets
back up those words you've sung
because our voices alone this time will not get it done
because the people, united, will get it done
protest against injustice, state terror
on the streets of the world for the disempowered
protest against injustice, state terror
on the streets of the world for the disempowered
protest against injustice, state terror
on the streets of the world for the disempowered
protest against injustice, state terror
on the streets of the world for the disempowered
