Then go back to chorus and your pretty much set

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 U.S. tax dollars are spent

To rid the native insurgence in Mexico, and any other U.S. corporate interests

The third world is a modern day playground, for multinational companies

And the tax dollars we're forced to pay, fund these heartless U.S. policies

Their explanation... "it's national interest, national security..."

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 Bighorn 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!"
