Stick the Fucking Flag Up Your Goddamn Ass, You Sonofabitch

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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" [Bridge] 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! [Verse 2] 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 [Verse 3] 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 [Refrain] Fuck the troops to hell
