Article Iv Lyrics - Singles - Good Riddance

crawling through the mud all night long 

Hunted like rats by the Viet Cong 

Fields of death bodies piled up higher 

Through the silence of the Tet cease-fire 

The will to fight seems so long gone 

While back at home they sing a protest song 

They burned them once then they shot them twice 

Shot three times for the blood of christ 

Sun sets of the days of rage 

What said and done by the chosen ones 

Sun sets on the days of rage 

As your cities burn the revolution comes 

Crowd control becomes a police state 

On the streets of Chicago 1968 

The last call for civil liberty 

The black panthers versus o.p.d. 

From the Berkeley campus to the fields of Kent state 

The National Guard must retaliate 

The guardsman smiled said he had as choice 

All he could see was the blood of Christ 

You should see the things they've done today 

Our national guard firing into an unarmed crowd 

What about our human rights? 

What about our sense of community? 

First California then the world
