Red Star Belgrade: "The Real Traitors"

Snippet:

The real traitors are trotting out the flag
like the liars over at Fox News.
Ask Bill O'Reilly if fascism pays;
ask Rupert Murdoch if he's singing the blues.
Ask Dennis Miller why he sold his soul
to become the fascist's comic of choice.
Ask all the Democratcs sitting on the Hill
where they spine went and how they lost their voice."


Son Volt: "Jet Pilot"

"Jet pilot for the day
Washed his sins away
Loves to see the Rangers play
His daddy has a job in Washington
Wants to raise a Harvard son

Junior liked to let his hair down
Only trouble is, word gets around

Revolution will be televised
across living rooms
and the great divide
Robbing barren ghettos
for us now
everybody needs a hunting ground

Jet Pilot flown away
Got a passing grade
Made it to the world stage
A hemisphere away
Death is on display
The sins would never wash away
