My Country letra

I'll line up in order of rank or of stature
if you'll paint me a rainbow to hide my true colors
don't ship me to front lines, don't ask me to bother
to lace up my boots or to wear something leather
don't buy me some clothing to impress all the HRs
don't tell me that it will look good on my CV
don't put me up, clean me up, sell my bad habits
sit me down to relax in front of a TV
'cause I, I will not die for my country

So I'll put up a scarecrow to scare off my neighbors
and to have something for birds to light down upon
'cause in school I learned not to talk to strangers
and that's why I'm scared now to meet anyone
so forget my name like a tied up and knotted string
it's just my way, you know it's how I'm grappling
with hurtling through space in an orbit unending
thinking I matter, yeah I know it's pretending
but I, I will not die for my country
no I, I will not die for my country

So I put up a colored cloth that represents borders
so the angel of death knows not to deport me
my neighbor's the enemy cause he can't afford one
they've slaughtered his family, now they're taking his first born
You can scare me with smart bombs
And scare me with anthrax
And scare me with vague threats of foreign attacks
mandate allegiance and increase income tax
but I, I will not die for my country
no I, I will not die for my country
