Don?t think twice Don?t think twice, about the life you lead Must be nice, that someone else will bleed Fear is all around, terrors on the rise The stars and stripes a waving fills our patriotic hearts with pride Don?t think twice Don?t think twice, about the wars we wage Don?t compromise, no that?s a big mistake Freedom?s on the march, God is on our side Be sure to say a prayer for those courageous souls we?ve sacrificed Don?t think twice Don?t think twice, about the lives we take Wrong or right, it?s got to be our way So that we may live, thousands have to die Say the pledge and tell yourself that we were surely justified Don?t think twice Don?t think twice, it isn?t up to you Close your mind; pretend it?s just not true These colors never run; we?re not afraid to fight Especially if someone else is gonna have to pay the price Don?t think twice Conspiracy of silence Disturbing visions of flag- covered coffins each day United we stand while they're warring our future away The spin doctors dance while our young men continue to die All for the sake of the corporate American pie It's a conspiracy of silence and it's breaking us down In a conspiracy of silence the truth won?t be found The president seems to have dangerous thoughts in his head His war-minded handlers are pushing him over the edge Protecting the interests of all their industrial friends The sins of the father repeating all over again It's a conspiracy of silence and it's holding us down In a conspiracy of silence the truth can't be found Remind us again how September eleventh will justify all of your Unjustifiable wars It's time we demanded they answer the questions they've dodged And make them give back to us all of the freedoms they've robbed The seeds of big brother have started to take root and spread And if we don't rise up we'll find our democracy's dead It's a conspiracy of silence and it's keeping us down In a conspiracy of silence the truth can't be found It's a conspiracy of silence and it's tearing us down In a conspiracy of silence? We're the Enemy I'm tired of hatred I'm tired of war I'm tired of killing when we're not quite sure what the killing is for God bless America we're not to blame Do you think if he cares when we kill in his name? Land of the free Home of the brave a nation cries old glory waves How many more will have to die? Until we open up our eyes What will it take until we see? We're the enemy We pledge allegiance to corporate greed We will kill for the right to control all the oil that we need We will reap what we sow yes an eye for an eye Will you think that it's right when it's your child that dies? Land of the free Home of the brave a nation cries old glory waves How many more will have to die? Until we open up our eyes What will it take until we see? We're the enemy Do as we say not as we do If you don't then the time will soon come when we're coming for you If we're silent we're sinners we must take a stand Or repeat the mistakes we made in Vietnam Another time another place A nation cried Old glory waved Lessons learned forgotten fast from the not so distant past What will it take until we see? We're the enemy We're the enemy We're the enemy We're the enemy |
