Bags On Their Heads (music sample)

I watched the blitzkrieg of Afghanistan
I watched the tanks roll through Kuwait
The bombs bursting in air
Over women and children - My God they must be scared!
The daylight reveals an American dome
The rubble and bones of your neighbor's home
Then we roll through with soldiers, tanks and guns
Like Russia in Czechoslovakia and Hitler in Poland
If it's good for them - it must be good for us
Would our children be safe there now - on a school bus?
When did American become a Patriot Act instead?
Liberty wears a bag on her head
Billboards claim our Marines are protecting us
What a lie! This totally disgusts!
If they are doing anything for me
Then come home all you soldiers -- to your family
Bags on their heads -- interrogate them
Come home -- you're a policeman
You've already killed -- taken a life -- murdered them in their beds
You're ready to protect our children -- with bags on their heads
SOLO:
Trained to take orders -- kill on command
Do you represent each American?
Every time you shoot to kill
Should every American get a satisfying thrill?
As we play our video war games
Destroying our digital enemies
Learning the desire to kill monsters without names
Are we the solution -- or the disease?
Killing is the only way to win
One or a hundred is not a sin
Whether you win or whether you lose
Guilt is not a feeling you will ever choose
If it's good for them -- it must be good for us
Would our children be safe there now -- on a school bus?
When did America become a Patriot Act instead?
Liberty wears a bag on her head
