A Start by Anti-Flag | lyrics[fix or update these lyrics]
rats, monkeys, mice - teach ' em little tricks
stay far from creativity, and from politics
'cause the multinationals need a solid work force
or their growing profit margins will be wiped out at the source
conform to the status quo, set rules
hold your mind into their fucking tool
chorus:
reciting back their facts and numbers - that don't make you smart
there's much more to intelligence - and thinking for yourself would be a start
it would be a start...
start!
pledge allegiance to a flag of which you're taught no history
not mexico, granada, panama, or middle east
but they're just a mere fraction of this country's shady past
skeletons locked in the closet and i doubt they'll be the last
"national interest, " defined for you...
but who's it really serve? who's getting screwed?
your prison warden is your school
training you to be a social screw
stage a jailbreak, swim against the flow
show those motherfuckers what you know!
i feel like i am suffocating
i feel my life depreciating
i knowtheir teachings are riddled with lies, distortions, shit!
it kills me knowing the masses are so brainwashed by it - brainwashed by it!
Underground Network (2001)
Rats, monkeys, mice - teach 'em little tricks
Stay far from creativity, and from politics
'Cause the multinationals need a solid work force
Or their growing profit margins will be wiped out at the source
Conform to the status quo, set rules
Mold your mind into their fucking tool
Chorus:
Reciting back their facts and numbers - that don't make you smart
There's much more to intelligence - and thinking for yourself would be a start
It would be a start... (x3)
Start!
Pledge allegiance to a flag of which you're taught no history
Not Mexico, Granada, Panama, or Middle East
But they're just a mere fraction of this country's shady past
Skeletons locked in the closed and i doubt they'll be the last
"National Interest," defined for you...
But who's it really serve? Who's getting screwed?
Chorus (repeat)
Your prison warden is your school
Training you to be a social screw
Stage a jailbreak, swim agianst the flow
Show those motherfuckers what you know!
I feel like i am suffocation
I feel my life depreciating
I know their teachings are riddled with lies, distortions, shit!
It kills me knowing the masses are so brainwashed by it - brainwashed by it!
