songs about politics

[blackeyed]

the whole of the new blood brothers album 'crimes' wheeeaaaay.

few choice lyrics because im not the sort of bummer to post the whole bastard song:-

'who do you love, who do you trust,
who do you kill when your senator drags out your first born
a panicked face makes the peacock proud'

ahh and a bunch of other lyrics...


Adrian needs to watch those videos, doesn't he.

Nobody is permitted to mention Pink Floyd on this thread. Thanking you please.

could just whack a load of bad religion up but the effort involved would avert me from concentrating on being lazy at work.

 

[Don Corleone]

the whole thrash scene has a lot of lyrics about politics.
and lots of punk and hardcore too of course
old stuff...like the 70s...full of it...
bob dylan...
creedence clearwater revival...
jefferson airplane...

phew too many to mention

 

[my dying groom]

I know a place
Where you're all going to go
They'll pay you to kill
If you're eighteen years old
First you'll need a haircut
And then some new clothes
They'll stick you in a jungle
To play G.I. Joe

CHORUS:
You fight for democracy
And the "American Way"
But you're not in your country
"What am I doing here?" you say
But now it's too late
You're entering Managua
If you had brought your surfboard
You could surf Nicaragua

[Morpheus]

I know a place
Where you're all going to go
They'll pay you to kill
If you're eighteen years old
First you'll need a haircut
And then some new clothes
They'll stick you in a jungle
To play G.I. Joe

CHORUS:
You fight for democracy
And the "American Way"
But you're not in your country
"What am I doing here?" you say
But now it's too late
You're entering Managua
If you had brought your surfboard
You could surf Nicaragua

You had a hard childhood, no wonder the cynical attitude.
