Whose child stays and whose child goes
Is not a matter of fate;
It's a matter of economics
Whose child sings and whose child croaks
Is just punishment for the
Worst crime of all…
Whose child stays and whose child goes
Is not a matter of fate;
It's a matter of economics
Whose child sings and whose child croaks
Is not subject to
Some kind of
Divine condemnation
There is no divine;
There is only condemnation
Condemnation
Human condemnation
Political condemnation
Economic condemnation
And empire clings
To the last vestiges
Of its bloody entrails
Yet these entrails
Eat, and breathe;
And drink, and think;
And sleep, and weep;
And live, and love
And the “Free” Market clings
To the last vestiges
Of its bloody empires
And children die in its wake
But our leaders a**ure us;
We're not the wrong ones
They're the criminals
We're innocent;
They're guilty
Them. They
Their crime?
Being born in the wrong part of the planet
Their punishment?
That's not for us to decide
That's God's decision
We have one obligation
And one obligation alone
We must defend our privilege
By any means necessary
(We repeat:
We must defend our privilege
By any means necessary.)
Don't worry
They tell us
Their lives are less valuable
They're necessary
Human sacrifices
In the name of freedom
Their lives are less valuable
They a**ure us
They're just
Human sacrifices
In the name of…
Their lives are less valuable
They a**ure us
They're just
Human sacrifices
In the name of Freedom
We're just protecting our freedom
Almighty Freedom
We're just maintaining our lifestyle
Our lifestyle
Fulfilling the Dream
They are always the oppressor
And we are always the oppressed
They are always the instigator
We always act in self-defense
We only act in self-defense
Self-defense
We only slaughter children
In self-defense
