Lyrics
If you believe in Jesus
The prophecies have you again
But here is a revelation my friend
That isn't so far from pretend
There are more than Americans dying
To keep this country we defend
But you'll never be told bout the young and the old
Whose broken hearts will never mend
These are turbulent times
When all the worlds a changin'
So why would you send your boys and your girls
To kill off innocent nations
We'll stand out in the streets
Defending our preservation
Oh...well the world's a wonderful place
Except for this condemnation
Condemn Nation
Oh if you believe in reasons
And money buys your happiness
Then you're bought and you're sold like the young that they mold
And the oil they're sent to defend
Our leaders are telling us lies
And it ain't just those republicans
If they opened their hearts then maybe they'd see
We're more than just Americans
We're humans and Americans
And we're free to build up, and we're free to destroy
And we're free to give in, and we're free to control
And we?re free to give love, and we're free to be alone
And we're free to invade you and blow up your home
And we're free to think gods gonna come save the day
Because freedom is all wars about anyway
It's not about power
It's not about greed
It's not about fear
It's not about hate
