Lunchtime Song

Combat Rock by Sleater-Kinney

They tell us there are only two sides to be on

If you are on our side youíre right if not youíre wrong

But are we innocent, paragons of good?

Is our guilt erased by the pain that weíve endured?

Hey look it’s time to pledge allegiance

Oh god I love my dirty Uncle Sam

Our country’s marching to the beat now

And we must learn to step in time

Where is the questioning where is the protest song?

Since when is skepticism un-American?

Dissentís not treason but they talk like itís the same

Those who disagree are afraid to show their face

Let’s break out our old machines now

It sure is good to see them run again

Oh gentlemen start your engines

And we know where we get the oil from

Are you feeling alright now

Paint myself all red white blue

Are you singing let’s fight now

Innocent people die, uh oh

There are reasons to unite

Is this why we unite?

If you hate this time

Remember we are the time!

Show you love your country go out and spend some cash

Red white blue hot pants doing it for Uncle Sam

Flex our muscles show them weíre stronger than the rest

Raise your hands up baby are you sure that weíre the best?

We’ll come out with our fists raised

The good old boys are back on top again

And if we let them lead us blindly

The past becomes the future once again
