You Ve Got To Die For Your Government lyrics

`You`ve Got To Die For Your Government` - Anti-Flag

you gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government,
die for your country that`s shit
you gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government,
die for your country that`s shit

there`s a gulf war vet
dyin` a slow, cold, death
and the government says,
we don`t know the source of his sickness
but don`t believe what they say
because the government is lyin`
they`ve done it before, and don`t you know they`ll do it again
a secret test, government built virus
subject test group: gulf battle field troops

you gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government,
die for your country that`s shit
you gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government,
die for your country that`s shit

first war Veterans slaughtered
by General Eisenhower
you give `em your life
they give you a stab in the back
radiation, agent orange
tested on U.S. souls
guinea pigs for western corporations
I never have, I never will
pledge allegience to the flag
you`re getting used, you`ll end up dead

you gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government,
die for your country that`s shit
you gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government,
die for your country thats shit

I don`t need you to tell me what to do,
and I don`t need you to tell me what to be, fuck you!
I don`t need you to tell me what to say
and I don`t need you to tell me what to think
what to think, what to think
what to think, think, think, think

die, gotta die, gotta die for your government,
die for your country that`s shit
you gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government,
die for your country that`s shit

you gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government,
die for your country that`s shit
you gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government,
die for your country that`s shit

you gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government,
die for your country that`s shit
you gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government,
die for your country that`s shit

you gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government,
die for your country that`s shit
you gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government,
die for your country that`s shit...
