Never Rest in Peace Lyrics by Star Fucking Hipsters
Never Rest in Peace
2009
[Verse 1] "Hard persuasion," "interrogation" They call it what they will They just don't call it "torture" All the same, it fits the bill A man will tell you anything If faced with pain and fear While isolated, separated From all that they hold dear [Chorus] Tooth for tooth and eye for eye It makes us all the same Political war criminals We elect and know their names [Verse 2] To police the world's insanity When, at home, there's a mess Incarcerating innocents Is the one thing we do best We must have these fucking criminals All doing real time No suspended-sentence cover-ups For brutal, wicked crimes [Chorus] United States' hypocrisy Got straight "A"s on the test And our corporate corruption Is, quite simply, the best We'll go down like the Salem witches Proven innocent Then you'll grasp the ugly truth of Just how your tax dollars have been spent [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] And we're so good at internment It's so hard to concentrate While trading blood for oil To construct our police state Protecting the environment Like our civil liberties We'll show the world our freedom Beaten, gagged, bound, and dragged Forced down onto our knees [Bridge] We didn't start this fire You never came in peace Wide awake and chained in place And stolen from their families You've crossed the line again With eager pad and pen Coerced, undressed, inhuman stress "Tell us how, and we'll confess" Locked up and thrown away The key was never made Another culture to be Scapegoated as mystery Control by threat of fear The same throughout the years The puppet masters profit Throughout history Suspicion leads to torture Humiliation based on faith Somewhere in a cell, between heaven and hell Will rise a vengeful wraith These ghosts will lead the way Until your dying day Unstitch the seams in your American dreams From Guantánamo to Abu Ghraib [Outro] You'll never rest in peace You'll never rest in peace Sun rises every day You'll never rest in peace You'll never rest in peace You'll never rest in peace Sun setting every day You'll never rest in peace
