Scar Spangled Death Rag

Native tongue and celebration
Spiritual relation-
Ships of war across the water
Bring religion, law and order
In the name of god and country
They decimate culture
The eagle of democracy
Is a fascist vulture

Christopher Columbus sailed to explore
With orders to divide and conquer new world shores
The natives, ‘the savages’, showed no respect
They were raped, robbed and murdered and then told to forget
Ancient forms of worship, age old ties to the land
‘Cos for rich white folks it goes hand in hand
Exploiting Mother Nature and keeping people as slaves
Then on their knees pray for forgiveness when there’s famine and plague

Guns cocked, jaws drop, hearts stop, life is lost

Read all about it, the bells toll for victory
A slumbering giant has woken from its sleep
There is no escape from such diabolical schemes
And the power of nightmares sickening creep

The Apache, the Pueblo, the Navajo
Dead rivers, dead forests, dead buffalo
Economics and war, allegiance sworn to a flag
Border gates and nation states, the new lines drawn in the sand
Indigenous lands become national parks
Clear cuts, mines and oil fields resemble scars
Of festering wounds caused by white men’s greed
Where individual status, wealth and power outweigh collective needs
...............................................................................................................................
