No Gold Stars For Nationalism by Brandtson
No Gold Stars For Nationalism lyrics
Catastrophe!
Now all my happiest memories
bear distance resemblance
to a nations spent shell casings to me.
It�s so obscene.
With guns, germs, and steel we march faithfully into war
until this one becomes abandoned
like those on drugs and poverty before.
Two men do not make a world.
If it�s for us all, where�s the support?
Let�s call a spade imperialism.
We�re off focus. I bet if I had a gun
and a bullet for every kid I knew around here
whose parents haven�t spoken in years,
I could fight these wars myself.
Procure oil myself.
Given half chance by myself
to produce results in foreign lands
I could connect pipelines by myself.
Establish satellites by myself.
