Rightious killin' in the name of freedom
We been down that sorry road before
They let us hang around a little longer than we should've
It's too late to fool us anymore
We've seen the ones who kill the ones with vision
Cold blooded murder right before your eyes
Today they hold the power and the money and the guns
It's gettin' hard to listen to their lies
And I just gotta wonder what my Daddy woulda done
If he'd seen the way they'd turned his dream around
I gotta go by what he told me
Try to tell the truth and stand your ground
Don't let the bastards get ya down
(SPOKEN)
Bombin' Bagdad back into the stone age, 'round the clock
Non-stop for 40 days, killed 'em in their homes and on their highways
Now after a decade of cripplin' sanctions we're talkin' about goin' back in there
And doin' it all over again, fightin' terrorism
CHORUS
(Don't let the bastards get ya down)
Don't let the bastards get ya down
(Don't let the bastards get ya down)
Don't let the bastards get ya down
