2003\
My son brought home a leaflet he said fell from the sky
It read "Oppression will soon be over" - but leaflets
are known to lie
And like my second son before him - I don't want him to die
Who the hell ever supported our dictator?
Laser-guided Tomahawks massacre the marketplace
"Accidents will happen " as a smirk escapes his face
Liberator in the front pew - he hums 'Amazing Grace'
Grinning like an alligator
Liberator - Liberator
Install democracy like it's a carborator - liberator
Liberator - Liberator
The way you rape your country it don't matter if you love or
hate her
Liberator
His roots support regimes
even hypocrisy can't change
He declares - "Secure the oil fields!" which at first
might sound strange
But if you come from where he came from you'd understand his
lack of brains
And see that he is not the sole operator
Exploitation of a tradgedy makes a nice nest for the hawks
Embedded propaganda just as sneaky as a FOX
Sanitizing snapshots giftwrapped up in a box
While the viewers drive the battle simulator
For the Liberator - Liberator
Awarding contracts to the biggest donator - liberator
Liberator - Liberator
The way you rape your country it don't matter if you love or
hate her
Liberator
It runs deep and long and
wide under his Grand Old Party's tent
They've got balloons for kids and games for teens
And witch-hunts for those who dissent
Where you can win a prize for the best disguise
And for the best forged document
But don't let those inspectors in
They might undermine your intent
And there's a high-flying U.S. Patriot Act
Up on the trapeze without a net
While down below they've tamed a paper tiger
That held a threat so imminent
And in the center ring you will find today's main event
And the crowds will cheer as a donkey is crushed
By a well-trained elephant
So support the troops - support the war
And above all - support the president
Because the freedom you feel today
You'll soon wonder where it went
You sell your war with the
bait-and-switch
To help the poor you've got tax cuts for the rich
If you end up behind bars on your knees as someone's bitch
Maybe then I'll be a celebrator
For the Liberator - Liberator
Install democracy like it's a carborator - liberator
Liberator - Liberator
The way you rape your country it don't matter if you love or
hate her
Liberator
