Somewhere between prayer and revolution 

between Jesus and Huey P. Newton 

that's where you find Jonny 5 shoot shooting 

water guns at the audience while you’re scooting 

your gluteous max due to the fact that he’s tooting 

on the horn gonna warn you that I'm rooting 

for the other team in the culture wars 

so I stab the beast belly while the vulture snoars 



yo loe

let it blow with convulsive force 

til walls fall off their false supports 

til Jericho's aircraft carriers alter course 

and all brave young Americans are called ashore 

cause we've already lost the war we keep waging 

splattering the streets in battles that keep raging 

bloodying each page of the story that we're studying 

each day the same just the names keep changing 



saying the same things over again 

repeating the same slogans we don't know where we've been 

We've been all over the globe on our government's funds 

leaving man woman and child dead bloody and numb 

saying the same things over again 

repeating the same slogans we don't know where we've been 

we've been overthrowing leaders with legitimate views 

democratically elected but we didn't approve.... 



How many times can the line divide 

how many wars to uphold your pride 

these fears uncontrolled just swoll the tide 

of blood in the streets while the people die 

I’ma keep on trying 

longs as suffering's multiplying 

and why not 

souls get tossed and left out to rot 

my backs broad enough to help left your cross 

as long as you help with mine 

the process of healing will take some time 

to see the pain on your face is the same as mine 

not a game or a race but the stake is high 

we maintain our mistakes for the sake of sides 

as long as it takes I"ll say it one more time 

as long as it takes I'll say it one more time 

as long as it takes I'll say it one more time 



saying the same things over again 

repeating the same slogans we don't know where we've been 

We've been all over the globe on our government's funds 

leaving man woman and child dead bloody and numb 

saying the same things over again 

repeating the same slogans we don't know where we've been 

we've been overthrowing leaders with legitimate views 

democratically elected but we didn't approve.... 



U.S. is not us

And us is not we

And we are not satisfied

well we’re tired of the same thing

and we’re ready to make change

are we ready to make change? 



we want money for healthcare and public welfare 

free mumia and Leonard peltier 

human needs not corporate greed 

drop the debt and legalize weed 

we say yes to grassroots organization 

no to neoliberal globalization 

bring the troops back to the USA 

and shut down guantanamo Bay 



Who let'em overthrow Jacobo Arbenz 

Who let'em overthrow Mohammad Mosaddeq 

Who let'em assassinate Salvador Allende 

I didn't let them but they did it anyway 

Who let'em overthrow Kwame Nkrumah 

Who let'em overthrow Aristide 

Who let'em assassinate Oscar Romero 

I didn't let'em but they did indeed!



don't let them assassinate Hugo Chavez 

don't let them assassinate Evo Morales 

bring back Martin,, Malcolm, Medgar, Hampton, Schwerner, Goodman, Chaney 



Saying the same things over again
