All united, all as one, let's make a stand...
|
We've got a privilege in the power that we command !
|
So let's not drown in ignorance,
|
And let our strenght waste away...
|
As the richest nation in the world, we've got a responsibility !
|
|
Vieques, Puerto Rico, a pretectorate -- of the USA.
|
Part a home for native families, the rest...
|
A NAVY BOMBING RANGE !!
|
|
Shells misfired kill civilians there,
|
And napalm hangs in the island air.
|
But the government beats down protests against this misuse...
|
|
So...
|
|
STAND UP, FIGHT BACK, RESIST-REFUSE !!
|
'Cause if we don't do it, no one's going to...
|
So,
|
STAND UP, FIGHT BACK, RESIST-REFUSE !!
|
'Cause if we don't do it, no one's going to...
|
|
I look into the eyes, of a dead island boy's face.
|
His (eyes) remind me of another's,
|
From a different time and place...
|
|
Where A-Bombs baked the ground,
|
Of Bikini's tropical lands.
|
Where a culture was erased,
|
Families misplaced,
|
BY A NAZI-ESQUE LIKE PLAN !!!
|
|
All done, in your name, by Uncle Sam...
|
So if we don't fight it, then we're guilty to !
|
|
So...
|
|
STAND UP, FIGHT BACK, RESIST-REFUSE !!
|
'Cause if we don't do it, no one's going to...
|
|
I think it's 'bout time that we had a change...
|
I think it's 'bout time that WE MAKE A CHANGE !!
