You've  gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
 Die for your country? That's shit!
 You've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
 Die for your country? That's shit!
 There's a Gulf  War vet, dying a slow, cold death
 And the government says, "We don't know the source of his sickness."
 But don't believe what they say, because your government is lying
 They've done it before and don't you know they'll do it again
 (OPEN)
 A secret test, government built virus
 "Subject Test Group: Gulf Battle Field Troops"
 You've gotta die,  gotta die,  gotta die  for your government?
Die  for your country?  That's shit!
 You've gotta die,  gotta die,  gotta die  for your government?
Die  for your country?  That's shit!
First  World War veterans slaughtered, by General Eisenhower
 You give them your life, they give you a stab in the back
 Radiation, agent orange, tested on US souls
 Guinea pigs for Western corporations
 (OPEN)
 I never have, I never will
 Pledge allegiance to their flag
 You're getting used, you'll end up dead!
 You've gotta die,  gotta die,  gotta die  for your government?
Die  for your country?  That's shit!
 You've gotta die,  gotta die,  gotta die  for your government?
Die  for your country?  That's shit!
 I don't  need you to tell me what to do
 And I don't  need you to tell me what to be... FUCK  YOU!
 I don't  need you to tell me what to say
 And I don't  need you to tell me what to think!  What to think!
 What to think, what to think, what to think, think, think, think!
 (ONLY DRUMS)
 You've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
 Die for your country? That's shit!
 You've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
 Die for your country? That's shit!
 You've gotta die,  gotta die,  gotta die  for your government?
Die  for your country?  That's shit!
 You've gotta die,  gotta die,  gotta die  for your government?
Die  for your country?  That's shit!
  (OPEN!)
 You've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
Die  for your country?  That's shit!
 You've gotta die,  gotta die,  gotta die  for your government?
Die  for your country?  That's shit!
