Wrong Side Of The Revolution
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The government is your friend, you see, that's what I
have to say or they will bury me
Don't you try to criticize, don't you every try to talk
about their lies
I don't know what you've been told, but last time that
I checked
We had the right to say the things we mean, and
disagree, and not have to face the guillotine
If it's your head in the basket, then you picked the
wrong side of the revolution
The Patriot Act is the Riot Act with a "PAT"
What it really means is that they're watching you, and
that they're *really* watching me
And anyone who disagrees is sure to lose their
liberties
A patriot has got to keep his mouth shut
If it's your head in the basket, then you picked the
wrong side of the revolution
Our child king and his army wing are hellbent on the
conquest
Our enemies on bended knees will see it our way soon
The freedom that they steal from us, they try to export
overseas
And now our former enemies are free to live a life of
tyrrany the same as you and me
And it's a crime
To speak your mind
And it's a crime...
Don't say a word, cuz if you're heard
That blade is gonna fall
There's a place you ought to know, this shithole called
Guantanamo
Where the people who we cannot trust are safely kept
away from us
Well, we never have to worry if they're guilty or not,
because we stick them in a cell and they are soon
forgotten
And they're out of sight and out of mind and out of
luck
If it's your head in the basket, then you picked the
wrong side of the revolution
Before you choose a side to fight, forget about who's
wrong or right
If you like your neck, you best as heck start rooting
for the winner
This brave new world is knocking at your door, and you
better let it in
The constitution's evolution never made a contribution
to the revolutionary man
And it's a crime
To speak your mind
And it's a crime...
Don't say a word, cuz if you're heard
That blade is gonna fall
