Anti-flag - Stars And Stripes Lyrics

Submitted by: AUTO-ADD
Current Rating: None
Welcoming with open arms and
with open hearts.
In the end they found their arms in shackles and
their hearts torn out.

This country named "America"
is built on graves.
Of the natives who lived here
before genocide took place.
the word "America" means "Freedom" - as in,
"Free to kill the free..."

Don't fly those stripes
those stars and stripes
for me, for me.

Don't fly those stripes
those stars and stripes
for me, for me.

for me....

It's the same today as then, as
US dollars are spent.
To rid the native insurgence in Mexico
and any other US "Interests".
The 3rd world is a modern day playground
for multinational companies
And the tax dollars we're forced to pay
fund these heartless US policies.
Their explanations...
"Its national interest,
national security".

Don't fly those stripes
those stars and stripes
for me, for me.

Don't fly those stripes
those stars and stripes
for me, for me.

They stand for greed
they stand for hate
for nothing I believe

Don't fly those stripes
those stars and stripes
for me, for me.

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' graves.
When they call on me to die for them,
I'll say...
"Not me!".

Don't fly those stripes
those stars and stripes
for me, for me.

Don't fly those stripes
those stars and stripes
for me, for me.

they stand for greed
they stand for hate
for nothing I believe

Don't fly those stripes
those stars and stripes
for me, for me.

*spoken word*

Don't fly those stripes
those stars and stripes
for me.

Don't fly those stripes
those stars and stripes
for me.

They stand for greed
they stand for hate
for nothing I believe.

Don't fly those stripes
those stars and stripes
for me.

*end spoken word*


Don't fly those stripes
those stars and stripes
for me, for me.

Don't fly those stripes
those stars and stripes
for me, for me.

they stand for greed
they stand for hate
for nothing I believe

Don't fly those stripes
those stars and stripes
for me, for me.
