lyrics

9/11 was totally, predictably what happens
When you commit to rule the world through violence.
It isn't complicated, it's just science.
As of today we've killed a million Iraqis.
It makes no sense, the hijackers were Saudis.
The same ones that we help to bombard Yemen.
We fund the blockade and we send our weapons.
Ah!
Did you expect no revenge for all the terror
In the past 40 years alone?
Two hands controlling the spigot of resources
For the voiceless.

Not to mention, the first 9/11 was in 1973
When the CIA couped Chile and they killed the president.
And they killed over 3,000 people,
And they imprisoned 40,000 more
And they stuck them in the National Stadium
But they could never fit them all.

Did you expect no revenge for
All the peasants that we slaughtered over the years?
And did you not apply the same moral standard
To yourself that you apply to everyone else?

Oh so many 9-11s
Oh so many 9-11s
Oh so many 9-11s
Oh so many 9-11s

We bombed Libya.
We bombed the Sudan.
We used Honduras the same way as Thailand.
We genocided Afghanis and Phillipinos.
Used Agent Orange on the Vietnamese people.
We invaded Panama and Nicaragua.
Haiti and Cuba, it's a long bloody saga.
Pursuing hemispheric domination
Over the Middle East & Southeast Asia.
Ah!

And you could say it's always USA
Who represents the course of history.
We know the propaganda well by now.
And you could call it liberty
And you can sing democracy.
I guess anybody can have the word
If they like.

Can you explain our remorselessness
For our choices?

Oh so many 9-11s
Oh so many 9-11s
Oh so many 9-11s
Oh so many 9-11s
