Declare independence
Don't let them do that to you
Declare independence
Don't let them do that to you
Justice
Declare independence
Don't let them do that to you
Declare independence
Don't let them do that to you
Justice
Start your own currency
Make your own stamp
Protect your language
Declare independence
Justice
Declare independence
Don't let them do that to you
Declare independence
Don't let them do that to you
Make your own flag
Make your own flag
Raise your flag (higher, higher)
Raise your flag (higher, higher)
Raise your flag (higher, higher)
Raise your flag (higher, higher)
Declare independence
Don't let them do that to you
Damn colonists
Ignore their patronizing
Tear off their blindfold
Open their eyes
Declare independence
Don't let them do that to you
Declare independence
Don't let them do that to you
With a flag and a trumpet
Go to the top of the highest mountain
And raise your flag (higher, higher)
Raise your flag (higher, higher)
Raise your flag (higher, higher)
Raise your flag (higher, higher)
Raise your flag (higher, higher)
Raise your flag (higher, higher)
Declare independence
Don't let them do that to you
Declare independence
Don't let them do that to you
Raise the flag
