How I remember the history I have seen
I was just a young boy,the horror I couldnt forsee All the pain that comes with war All the scars that never heal Here in paradise the price is cheap Young men die for greed Across the ocean in a land they call Vietnam Young men dying is all it would cost We were told and proudly believed They would fight to keep us free Here in America the price is cheap Young men die for what? My brother,the soldier was a hero who survived He'd tell the stories of men who died without dreams And they fight for men twice their age The smell of death made his life change The price of paradise is stained with blood Why? All pawns and puppets of flesh and bone Will die for their leaders far from their homes These are men who died very young Afraid to see that their cause was unjust Why couldnt they live for life? Not die to survive |

Now over there in Managua Square
With American made bombs falling everywhere They kill women and children and animals too These bombs are made by people like me and you And we're told that we hold a big stick over them But I know from what I've read that peace is in our hands Now over there in Guatamala my friend We're making mistakes there once again Uncle Sam supports a fascist regime That doesnt represent the people over there We learn and believe there is justice for us all And we lie to ourselves with a big stick up our ass Now if we stand and yell it out That war isn't what we're all about Then someone will come and bring us back To get the peace train back on it's tracks This is what I'm singing about The race war that America supports Indians will never die They'll do just fine if we let them try Though we hold,we're never told that peace is in our hands If we stop there is time to heal the scars we've caused To heal the scars we've caused... |

Where's your courage?
Are you afraid to die? Are you happy that God is on your side? I wrote this song in a story of men who died for glory Where's your courage? Do you think you're alone? Are you laughing for being blind and pure? I wrote this song in a story of men who died for glory Where's your courage? Do you share all you have? Are you hiding from something you dont know? Where's your courage? |

Liberal Man meets Conservative Man
Conservative Man wears his myth on his skin Liberal Man has to explain his and keeps his shirt all buttoned up Conservative Man greets Liberal Man with a well-rehearsed cold stare Liberal Man replies by issuing forth horseshit Conservative Man retaliates by taking the concrete reality of the Situation and lodging it,like a wedge,right between both sides of Liberal Man's brain Liberal Man is caught off gaurd by this apparent non-abstraction There is one full minute of confusion Liberal Man becomes Conservative Man Conservative Man becomes Liberal Man War is declared Liberal Man cheats by calling in reinforcements Conservative Man is set upon by a mob and murdered Said mob then turns on Liberal Man and he dies a broken man |

Over 300 dead,we still got pride
We've lost all our morals,we still got pride Should we fight this war in some far corner of the globe And learn how to die for some unjust cause Is this our future? Ashes are all that remain It's easy when you got pride How much pride does a dead soldier got? His life so short,no chance to even start The ones he left behind The world he'll never see But no one could deny that the soldier died with pride |
