I can see hypocrisy in defending democracy
By denying liberty at home and away
I can’t say I’d rather stay at Woomera or Camp X-Ray
Telling all the children their religion’s astray
You wanna see the Vietnamese
At the Museum of American Atrocities, and ask
Hey, Hey, USA: how many children did you kill today?
I can’t see the merit in our status as a deputy sheriff
Taking marching orders from the USA
Can’t you see there’s something wrong
To repress dissent with cluster bombs
For a Christian crusade in a modern age
You oughta see all the refugees
From the Museum of American Atrocities, and ask
Hey, Hey, USA: how many children did you kill today?
I’d rather see some common sense in arguments in parliaments
Rather than the armaments of racist wars
