KMFDM - Stars & Stripes lyrics

[KMFDM - Stars & Stripes lyrics]

A tyrant is a man who
Allows his people no freedom
Who is puffed-up by pride
Driven by the lust of power
Impelled by greed
Provoked by thirst for fame

Divided and conquered gripped by fear
Wishful thinking that it can't happen here
It's well underway but nobody knows
A repeat of history that's how it goes

Tell the people that they're under attack
By man-eating foes from Mars or Iraq
Mobilize outrage muzzle dissent
Send in the troops strike the pre-empt

Stars & stripes learn how to fight
We come together by the dawn of the light
Oh so proudly we hail at
The rockets' red glare stars & stripes


Control the airwaves fuel the reaction
Use every weapon of mass distraction
Turn active people into passive consumers
Feed 'em bogus polls and harebrained rumors

Cut back civil rights make no mistake
Tell 'em homeland security is now at stake
Whip up a frenz, y keep 'em suspended
Don't let 'em know that their liberty's ended

Stars & stripes learn how to fight
We come together by the dawn of the light
Oh so proudly we hail at
The rockets' red glare stars & stripes

Stars & stripes learn how to fight
We come together by the dawn of the light
Oh so proudly we hail at
The rockets' red glare stars & stripes

Everything goes in the desperate states
The veneer of democracy rapidly fades
Wreak total havoc on all opposition
In any event, fulfill your mission
Totalitarian media sensation
You will give 'em domination
Never mind they call you liar and thief
By now you're undisputed commander-in chief

Stars & stripes learn how to fight
We come together by the dawn of the light
Oh so proudly we hail at
The rockets' red glare
By now you're undisputed commander-in chief
Stars & stripes learn how to fight
We come together by the dawn of the light
Oh so proudly we hail at
The rockets' red glare stars & stripes

Stars & stripes oh so proudly we hail at
The rockets' red glare (Learn how to fight)
Stars & stripes stars & stripes

At the rockets' red glare
At the rockets' red glare

Learn how to fight
