• bir sleater kinney şarkısı.sözleri:
  
  they tell us there are only two sides to be on
  if you are on our side you're right, if not you're wrong
  but are we innocent, pargons of good?
  is our guilt erased by the pain that we've endured?
  
  hey look it's time to pledge allegiance
  i love my dirty uncle sam
  our country's marching to the beat now
  and we must learn to step in time
  
  where is the questioning? where is the protest song?
  since when is skepticism un-american?
  dissent's not treason but they talk like it's the same
  those who disagree are afraid to show their face
  
  let's break out our old machines now
  it sure is good to see them run again
  oh gentlemen start your engines
  and we know where we got the oil from
  
  are you feeling alright now?
  paint myself all red,white and blue
  are you singing let's fight now?
  innocent people die, uh oh
  there are reasons to unite
  is this why we unite?
  if you hate this time
  remember we are the time!
  
  show you love your country, go out and spend some cash
  red, white, blue hot pants doing it for uncle sam
  flex our muscles show em we're stronger than the rest
  raise your hands up baby, are you sure that we're the best?
  
  we'll come out with our fists raised
  the good old boys are back on top again
  and if we let them lead us blindly
  the past becomes the future once again
