You can call me anAnarchist
Or a Communist
Or a hippie punk heretic Libertarian Leftist,whatever, I don't care.

Just close your ears, it's obvious you don't wannahear what I've gotta say
Just like you close your eyes every time you see ahomeless person on a street
Just like you close your mind to others'opinions
Just like you know all the big bad terrorists will be gone
Becauseyour country tells you so that makes it true
But I've got news foryou:
More than 1/3 of the world hates people like you (middle-class capitalistaffluent
white-collar oblivious)
Because if you think your country's sofree
Ask about COINTELPRO, 1950s to the present
Ask aboutCarnivore
Secret wars against the people
Police state of the west
You'llfind no answers, my friend, not where you're looking.

You can call me anAnarchist
Or a Communist
Or a hippie punk heretic Libertarian Leftistwhatever ... I don't care.
