	Story Behind the Song A much needed, no punches held rip on the foreign policy of the US government. Why? Well I imagine there'll always be disaffected terrorist freaks. The least we can do is stop giving them so many excuses. Lyrics Kids brimming with Ritalin pump their arms wave the flag As we wade into war once again undeclared What does that say about the USA We can't even follow our own rules "No entangling alliances" It's a concept that's lost on one-worlders with pre-written laws and crocodile tears. I don't give a rat's ass about preserving established governments I'm much more concerned about keeping my own country free I watch the BBC, because it's mind control at NBD and CBS and FOX I look around my room and everything's stamped FCC or DEA or ATF Our bobble head leaders with their warnings against dissent. They defame a proud nation that was founded by dissidents. With their hands in our wallets and their face on our screens Is our fate pre-determined by the likes of these. "Neccessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom It is the argument of tyrants It is the creed of slaves" (William Pitt 1759-1806, Speech in the House of Commons [November 18, 1783] "Society in every state is a blessing but government even at its best state is but a necessary evil, In it's worst state, an intolerable one." (Thomas Paine 1737-1809, Commen Sense 1776) Intolerable... Give us back our U.S.A. There's a reason we don't speak Latin today Because empires always fall and Ghengis Khan's not on our money today Because empires always fall LET'S NOT FALL
