Woody Guthrie

(앨범: Power In The Blood - 2002)

Another psychopath in Iowa, loading up another round
While the NRA in Columbine hunt Marilyn Manson down
Powder in the Pentagon, cruel letters in the mail
Some KKK white supremacist, cooking up a dose of race-hate

I tell you now

I don't need no country
I don't fly no flag
I cut no slack for the Union Jack
Stars and stripes have got me jet-lagged, yeah

I don't need no country
I don't fly no flag
I cut no slack for the Union Jack
Stars and stripes have got me jet-lagged, yeah

Some baby in Afghanistan, crying for his mama now
While the BNP scare refugees senseless up in Oldham town
Hypocrites in Downing Street pouring petrol on the flame
Satpal cries, asks Paddy "Why do we always get the blame?"

I tell you now

I don't need no country
I don't fly no flag
I cut no slack for the Union Jack
Stars and stripes have got me jet-lagged, yeah

I don't need no country
I don't fly no flag
I cut no slack for the Union Jack
Stars and stripes have got me jet-lagged, yeah

Sing a song for the asylum seeker
For the frightened baby on some foreign beach
You better bang a gong
And pray they reach safe harbour

Some mother in Jakarta, lays down her weary head
In some free trade zone compound, where they work you till you're dead
Hunger stalks the corridors, famine and disease
I seen the multinationals walking hand in hand with globalising marketeers

I tell you now

I don't need no country
I don't fly no flag
I cut no slack for the Union Jack
Stars and stripes have got me jet-lagged, yeah

I don't need no country
I don't fly no flag
I cut no slack for the Union Jack
Stars and stripes have got me jet-lagged, yeah

I don't need no country
I don't fly no flag
I cut no slack for the Union Jack
Stars and stripes have got me jet-lagged, yeah

I don't need no country
I don't fly no flag
I cut no slack for the Union Jack
Stars and stripes have got me jet-lagged, yeah

Sing a song for the asylum seeker
For the frightened baby on some foreign beach
You better bang a gong
And pray they reach safe harbour

You better sing a song for the asylum seeker
For the frightened baby on some foreign beach
You better bang a gong
And pray they reach safe harbour

Safe harbour
A safe harbour
