And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgement of all wrong

They decide and the shotgun sings the song

Franco Unamerican- NOFX

I never thought about the universe, it made me feel small

Never thought about the problems of this planet at all

Global warming, radio-active sites

Imperialistic wrongs and animal rights! no!



Why think of all the bad things when life is so good?

Why help with an am when theres always a could?

Let the whales worry about the poisons in the sea

Outside of california, its foreign policy



I dont want changes, I have no reactions

Your dilemmas are my distractions



Thats no way to go, franco un-american

No way to go, franco un-american

No way to go, franco un-american

No way to go, franco, franco un-american



I never looked around, never second-guessed

Then I read some howard zinn now Im always depressed

And now I cant sleep from years of apathy

All because I read a little noam chomsky



Im eating vegetation, cause of fast food nation

Im wearing a couple of shoes cause of globalization

Im watching michael moore expose the awful truth

Im listening to public enemy and reagan youth



I see no world peace cause of zealous armed forces

I eat no breath-mints cause their from de-hoofed horses

Now I cant believe; what an absolute failure

The presidents laughing cause we voted for nader



Thats no way to go, franco un-american

No way to go, franco un-american

No way to go, franco un-american

Where can we go, franco un-american



I want to move north and be a canadian

Or hang down low with the nice australians

I dont want to be another i-dont-care-ican

What are we gonna do franco, franco un-american

John Lennon- Imagine (I prefer the Perfect Circle version)

Imagine there's no countries,
It isnt hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people
living life in peace...

Imagine no possesions,
I wonder if you can,



Bad Religion- American Jesus

I don’t need to be a global citizen
Because I’m blessed by nationality
I’m member of a growing populace
We enforce our popularity
There are things that
Seem to pull us under
And there are things
That drag us down
But there’s a power
And a vital presence
Thats lurking all around
We’ve got the american jesus
See him on the interstate
We’ve got the american jesus
He helped build the
President’s estate
I feel sorry
For the earth’s population
’cuz so few
Live in the u.s.a.
At least the foreigners
Can copy our morality
They can visit but they cannot stay
Only precious few
Can garner the prosperity
It makes us walk
With renewed confidence
We’ve got a place to go when we die
And the architect resides right here
We’ve got the american jesus
Overwhelming millions every day
(exercising his authority)
He’s the farmers barren fields
The force the army wields
The expession in the faces
Of the starving children
The power of the man
He’s the fuel that drives the clan
He’s the motive and conscience
Of the murderer
He’s the preacher on t.v.
The false sincerity
The form letter that’s written
By the big computers
He’s the nuclear bombs
And the kids with no moms
And I’m fearful that
He’s inside me

To many to list right now. but here are lines from some of my favorites, for most i can't remember tha artists or the song names so i won't list them. you can guess:

"...fly by night its like a rocket flight, cause baby thats just what its for..."

"don't want to be an american idiot
one nation controled by the meia..."

"...everybody knows the deal is rotten
old black joe's still picking cotton
for your ribbons and bows
and everybody knows..."

"there was a time in this fair land when the railroads did not run..."

"across the hills and through the valley's comes a horseman wild and free..."

"sundown, youn better take care, when i find you've been creeping round my backstairs"

Well, the rain ain't fussy about where it lands,
It'll find you hiding no matter where you stand.
It's gonna rain brother, and it's gonna rain hard,
When the blues comes calling with it's calling card.

what have they done to the earth?.
what have they done
to our
fair sister?
ravenged and plundered and ripped her and bit her
stuck her with knives
in the side of the dawn
tied her with fences
and
dragged her down.............

He's the one who likes all our pretty songs
And he likes to sing along
And he likes to shoot his gun
But he knows not what it means
Knows not what it means and i say...
He's the one who likes all our pretty songs
And he likes to sing along
And he likes to shoot his gun
But he knows not what it means
Knows not what it means and i say yeah...

Big wheels keep on turning,
carry me home to see my kin
singing songs about the southland.
I miss ole bamy once again and I think it's a sin. Yes.

Well, I heard Mister Young sing about her.
Well, I heard ole Neil put her down.
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
a southern man don't need him around anyhow.


Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue.
Sweet home Alabama, Lord, I'm coming home to you.

In Birmingham they love the Gov'nor. Oooh hoo hoo.
Now we all did what we could do.
Now Watergate does not bother me.
Does your conscience bother you, tell the truth.

Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue.
Sweet home Alabama, Lord, I'm coming home to you.

Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
and they ve been known to pick a song or two.
Lord, they get me off so much,
they pick me up when I'm feeling blue, now how about you.

Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue.
Sweet home Alabama, Lord, I'm coming home to you.

Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue.
Sweet home Alabama, Lord, I'm coming home to you.



Gotta love it they told Niel Young where he could put his stupid song!

Avalon - Testify To Love


All the colors of the rainbow
All the voices of the wind
Every dream that reaches out
That reaches out to find where love begins
Every word of every story
Every star in every sky
Every corner of creation lives to testify

(Chorus:)
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a witness in the silences when words are not enough
With every breath I take
I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love

From the mountains to the valleys
From the rivers to the sea
Every hand that reaches out
Every hand that reaches out to offer peace
Every simple act of mercy
Every step to kingdom come
All the hope in every heart will speak what love has
done
