Anti-Flag - Die For Your Government Lyrics






you've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
die for your country? that's shit!
you've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
die for your country? that's shit!

there's a gulf war vet, dying a slow, cold death
and the government says, "we don't know the source of his sickness."
but don't believe what they say, because your government is lying
they've done it before and don't you know they'll do it again
a secret test, government built virus "subject test group: gulf battle field troops"

you've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
die for your country? that's shit!
you've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
die for your country? that's shit!

first world war veterans slaughtered, by general eisenhower
you give them your life, they give you a stab in the back
radiation, agent orange, tested on U.S souls guinea pigs for western corporations
i never have, i never will pledge allegiance to their flag you're getting used, you'll end up dead!

you've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
die for your country? that's shit!
you've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
die for your country? that's shit!

i don't need you to tell me what to do
and i don't need you to tell me what to be... fuck you!
i don't need you to tell me what to say
and i don't need you to tell me what to think!
what to think! what to think, what to think, what to think, think, think, think!

you've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
die for your country? that's shit!
you've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
die for your country? that's shit!

you've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
die for your country? that's shit!
you've gotta die, gotta die, die for your country? that's shit!

you've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
die for your country? that's shit!
you've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
die for your country? that's shit!
that's shit!

    Dying for you government is ridiculous, unless that government is Israel.

  41. R.... P....

    Still the biggest mosh pit of any punk show I have ever been to. Left Over Crack was second.
    *Edit: GWAR probably beat Left Over Crack in mosh pit size but they are in the mix of kind of punk between Metal and Rock like Motorhead style, just less serious.

  42. r.... s....

    My sister kept repeating this I was a kid she was older lol she's a poser

  43. R.... R....

    Their clothing in this video reminds me of Green Day.

    Love music 🔱

  51. J.... R....

    How else say them with rise against

  52. a.... g....

    Who wants to live forever?

  53. G.... ....

    US has an all-volunteer armed services. There is no draft. There are no conscientious objectors anymore. The song is moot.

    G.... ....

    GaryD You gotta be one stupid motherfucker to risk life, limb, and permanent mental disability for some shekels.

    G.... ....

    Notus Notus is it that people are risking? Ask yourself that. Some people turn to the service because they dont have anything else. Others join just to kill. Not everyone but thats two major reasons why people join

  54. u.... ....

  58. T.... A....

    There are punk band from Pittsburgh,Pennsylvania that I've heard on CJAM.

  59. G.... `....

    This song becomes frighteningly more relevant every year. Research MKULTRA, COINTELPRO, Gangstalking... There are innocent people being affected by these programs, and slowly but surely we are having our rights taken away and being led into a police state. Spread the word like wildfire and don't let these bastards take away our fundamental human rights.

  60. C.... P....

    The police lip synch challenge we all secretly want to see.

  61. S.... D....

    Boot licking capitalist nationalists need to stop listening to Anti-Flag and gtfo.
    Great song though.

  62. P.... ....

    Fuck the government.

  63. n.... b....

    saw these guys in seattle earlier this year. they’re fucking amazing live.

  64. A.... N....

    BC the Government is LYINGGG

  65. W.... ....

    Happy ANZAC day my Australian friends, stop the ANZAC propaganda machine that uses nationalism and war myths to push its war agenda and as recruitment drive for new wars

    W.... ....

    Agreed.

  66. r.... ....

    FUCK THE POLICE. -LIBERTARIAN

    r.... ....

    fuck the police and fuck you too

  67. C.... ....

    Love the chorus, not too keen on the rest of the song.

  68. J.... J....

    Die for the goverment album..andy flag in bass not chris#2

  69. C.... ....

    as someone who fell for this leftist shit when i was a teen i hope more dont'

    C.... ....

    lol, sad to hear you were just into shit like this to be edgy or you were ground down by nationalist/statist systems

  70. M.... B....

    Great song. Great message.

  71. N.... S....

    People don't see it, but Donald Trump becoming President is a punk dream.

  72. q.... ....

    Die for Israel

    q.... ....

    qwertyboy8 pretty much

  73. f.... l....

    They should make a song about'DONALD TRUMP'😂

  74. K.... B....

    Get off the internet, put yr petty squabbles aside, stand for something, or also, so what, who cares, submit, lay down and die.

  75. B.... B....

    No Nazi Threats Law: US Legislation to Outlaw Nazi Symbols - https://www.change.org/p/united-states-congress-no-nazi-threats-law-us-legislation-to-outlaw-nazi-symbols Nazi and Neo-Nazi symbols in particular pose a genuine and literal criminal threat of violence towards the general public, including people of color / minorities, immigrants, Jewish, Muslim, LGBT and transgender persons. The display of Nazi or Neo-Nazi symbols shall be regarded as a generalized criminal threat towards the public, as these symbols are universally recognized to denote hate and a willingness to harm others. Penalties and Prosecution should rightly follow as with other statutes concerning criminal threats of violence.

    B.... B....

    Billy Budd You seriously want to ban a symbol, because it offends people? give me a fuckin break man

  76. C.... ....

    Bravery is another word for stupidity. Joining the military, going to war overseas, and killing people you don't know is dying for your government. You can call it what you want, but there are people telling you to kill these people and you are killing them. If they lived in America for all you know they could have been your best friend. But we're going to go over and kill them just because some son-of-a-bitch tells us to who will not go over there himself. Someone comes after my friends, or my family I will murder bloody murder them. Other than that, I don't give a fuck what people do long as they're not hurting me, I don't care.

  77. T.... P....

    antifa sucks

    T.... P....

    You suck

  78. S.... N....

    First time hearing this song since i was 14, now at 26 I really understand the lyrics.

  79. A.... ....

    Wars are an evil and profitable business for those invested, an they do not care about you, me , us. All the president's have been involved in starting or continuing Wars. Its the Republicans, its the Democrats. US is not the world police, no country is. I hate seeing kids killing and being killed, having PTSD and no benefits after they have been used up. I never met My Grandfather (Father's side) he died during WW2, My other Grandfather (Mother's) side was a Pearl Harbor survivor. I can't comprehend the horrors of a War, and I would never wish it upon anyone.

  80. G.... C....

    This needs to be the new British national anthem as we head for the Orwellian nightmare!

  81. M.... L....

    Oh the shenanigans I used to get into while this song played back in my early lllll

  82. j.... B....

    2017 and even comes more real ....

    cool tune

  89. Z.... B....

    new kind of army.

  90. A.... B....

    I like listening to this music every once in a while, but I don't believe in the message anymore. If you are an anarchist, more power to ya. Just saying, ya better learn to hunt your own food, make your own clothes and shoes, live without electricity or the internet (and therefore how to educate your children), how to travel over large distances by foot or horse, treat your own illnesses, perform your own surgeries, and protect yourself and those you love from those that would take it all away. I think anarchists are ignorant little shits that want everything for free without any effort or discipline. Y'all say others need to wake up? I think it's you that needs to really reflect on how the world actually works. It's fun to be edgy when you're young, but when you grown up, you realize that the world didn't become the way it is for no reason.

    A.... B....

    Alex Banks yup, you are so right. The world didn't become so racist, sexiest, xenophobic, dependent on money along with sex, booze and drugs for no reason. The fact that wars are started over bullshit propaganda to keep the economy up in the US and tell others their religion is wrong is very fucked up. You are an ignorant closed minded fuck who needs to get your mouth off of the Govt's and Mainstream Media's dicks and start thinking for yourself! People like you are what is wrong with this society! Smdh

  91. K.... K....

    why does this sound like every green day song ever... ?
