Never Say No

 

Here's to the people that never say no

They blame someone else when the whole country goes

They blame their poor victims while in their death throes

They still can't believe that their friends are their foes


Here's to the people that never say no

They live and they die, they come and they go

With hardly a trace of an authentic soul

You're not really free if a book tells you so


Here's to the people that never say no

They roll up their sleeves or the money will go

They have yet to see the bad seeds they have sown

So many off-spring that will never be known


Here's to the people that never say no

They fight in the wars on behalf of their foes

They've not killed enough so now more have to go

Who knew that religion meant selling your soul


Here's to the people that never say no

They get war and disase and blood on the snow

Put in the deep-freeze and lost in the cold

Live with the humbled or die with the bold


Here's to the people that never say no

It's time to admit what we already know

You're neither a friend nor a fucking hero

Say "yes" at the end and your country will go

TO HELL
