I'm tired of media tactics
In the 21st century
We're livin' in a free America
Not captivity
Well, breaking news..is just business
Not meant to hurt no one
Tell that to a soldiers momma
Who just lost her only son
Oh, Media Man
What's your plan??
Do ya know how
To tell the truth??
Good Men & Women
are dying today
Givin away their
Sacred youth
You rank and degree
importance of death...
In an attempt to counter-act
American's know the headline story
is some street...in IRAQ
The reactionary news youre sellin'
Tainted politics and fear
Tell those Washington spin doctors
To feed someone elses ear
Breakin' news...
It's just buisness....
Not meant to hurt no one
Tell that to the soldiers Momma
who just lost
her only son
Oh, Media Man
What's your plan??
Do ya know how
to tell the truth??
Good Men & Women
are fightin' today
Protecting me and you
......That's right!!!
Like in the days of
Medgar Evers...
& Dr. Martin Luther King
It's still in the hands
Of our workin' class
So let.....Let Freedom Ring!!!
Oh, Democracy is only possible
when everyone pays the price
Many families have paid their dues...
More than once or twice
Media Man
What's your plan??
It's time to start
tellin' the truth!!
Good Men & Women
are dying today
Hero's of that....
Red...White and Blue
Oh....Media Man
What's your plan??
It's time to start
tellin' the truth!!!
Good Men & Women
Are dying today
Hero's of that
Red...White and Blue
The RED...WHITE and BLUE
THE RED...WHITE AND BLUE.!!!....
