Propagandhi - Stick the Fucking Flag Up Your Goddamn Ass, You Sonofabitch lyrics

My father told me "Son, it's futile to resist
You can topple ideologies but not
The armies they enlist"
I questioned the intentions of the
Boy scouts chanting war
"Well, that's the sound of freedom, son, "
He said, "Free to say no more"

But wait a minute, Dad
Did you actually say freedom?
Well, if you're dumb enough to vote
You're fucking dumb enough to believe 'em

Cause if this country is so goddamn free
Then I can burn your fucking flag
Wherever I damn well please
And then I'm gonna stick it
Up your fucking ass!

I carried their anthem, convinced it was mine
Rhyme less
Unreasoned conjecture kept me in line
But then I stood back and wondered
What the fuck had they done to me?
Made accomplice to all that I'd promised
I would never fucking be never be

You carry their anthem convinced
That it's yours
Invitation to honour, invitation to war
Bette Midler now assumes sainthood
Romanticize murder for morale
Tie a yellow ribbon round the
Oak tree my friend
And "Gee Wally, that's swell"

Fuck the troops to hell
Fuck the troops to hell
