Anti-Flag – Protest Song lyrics

And so the time has finally come!
The bourgeoisie has signed the war decree with proletariat blood!
And that blood which flows from their pen
Is the closest that they've ever been to the people!
You've been to our shows!
You've sung our songs!
Now we're asking you to add to each chorus you've sung and...

Protest!... Against!... Injustice!... State terror!...
On the streets of the world for the disempowered!
You've sung at our shows,
Cheered right over wrong.
Now it's time to hit the streets,
Back up those words you've sung!
Because our voices alone this time will not get it done...

Looking to stop a rogue regime?
Well the first one that we must confront is Washington, D. C.!
The Bush "terror war:" unconstitutional, unconscionable!
We refuse to let him kill, in our name, for oil!
We know their game,
Know they're corrupt!
It's up to us to hit the streets -- time to take our rights back!

Protest!... Against!... Injustice!... State terror!...
On the streets of the world for the disempowered!
You've sung at our shows,
Cheered right over wrong!
Now it's time to hit the streets,
Back up those words you've sung!
Because our voices alone this time will not get it done...
Because the people, united will get it done!

Protest!... Against!... Injustice!... State terror!...
On the streets of the world for the disempowered!

Protest!... Against!... Injustice!... State terror!...
On the streets of the world for the disempowered!

Protest!... Against!... Injustice!... State terror!...
On the streets of the world for the disempowered!

Protest!... Against!... Injustice!... State terror!...
On the streets of the world for the disempowered!
