Founding Fathers

[Verse 1]
Are the founding fathers terrorists or freedom fighters?
Paul Revere, the famous night rider
Andrew Jackson, the Indian killer
A movie of his life could be a nightmare thriller

[Verse 2]
Hand out blankets with disease
Our God is so much better we believe
Genocidal times, get on your knees
We're the good guys or so we perceive

[Verse 3]
So back then they rebelled against the king
U.S. in Iraq is really the same thing
All the radio hate disc jockeys rage
Screaming we should blast them back to the stone age

[Verse 4]
Just like John Wayne running up the hill
See how many Vietnamese he could kill
Destroy the village, part of the plan
Letting Africans die of AIDS to steal their land

[Bridge]
"Mommy, was George Washington a terrorist?"
"No honey, he was a great man
The first president and an important slave owner"
"Mommy, what are doing in Iraq?"
"Honey, we're gonna teach these people to be free"

[Verse 5]
Prop up the Saudi's corrupt regime
Deny people's rights and justice so it seems
All done for convenience and all that black gold
Send our boys off to protect our freedoms they are told

[Bridge]
"Didn't they lynch black folks in the South
Set 'em on fire, hang 'em from trees
Just like they did those men in Iraq?"
"Oh honey, that was long ago
We don't like to think about things like that"

[Verse 6]
All this hypocrisy makes us sick as hell
Our murderous government think they're all so swell
Capture people and deny 'em their rights
Abuse them from Guantanamo to the Golan Heights

[Verse 7]
Are the founding fathers terrorists or freedom fighters?
Take land from the Indians in trade for a little cider
Remember the only good Indian is one that is dead
How would it feel for it to be us instead?
