Rubber Bullets Lyrics
We are ready to fight
We are ready to fight it all.
We are ready to
fight with our minds
We are ready to fight with our words
Let me
ask you:
Who is going to police the police?
When they're shooting
up the streets
SHOOTING RUBBER BULLETS
We are ready to fight
FIGHT THEIR RUBBER BULLETS
We are ready to fight.
They
are criminalizing protest
And the evening news shows stories of
the eleven "criminals"
within a peaceful rally of five thousand
voices
There is no sign of the other four thousand nine hundred
and eighty nine
who lined up eager to be heard, exercising democratic
choices
In fact, they are ignored by cameras who film graffiti on the
corporate bank
And the caption reads: "vandals charged at protest
today"
And who, may I ask, have we to thank for this "incomprehensive"
news footage?
Well, it's not just the media
because they
are in bed with big business
It's not just the government
because
they are led by corporate interests
It's just a form of three-way
incest!
They are criminalizing protest
they are smirking,
they are smirking
They are criminalizing protest
and it is
working....
Meanwhile, back at the protest
the peaceful yet
persistent majority
With their placards and peace signs and petitions for
their MPs
just do not "have what it takes" to make for entertaining
t.v.
Besides, why be holistic, tell the truth or be unbiased
When
the tv-watching public doesn't question and stays quiet?
And they rely on
this apathy
The misinformation is the key and it further justifies forms
of police brutality.
(Please don't be quiet, please don't be quiet)
What are we to do?
What do we do about
this?-a
