The Real Traitors
The real traitors are trotting out the flag
Cashin' in on the red white and blue
Cheerleaders for another unjust war
The real perverters of all that's good and true
Toby's Keith's guitar is red white and blue
But Toby Keith you ain't foolin me
You would have been sucking up to Hitler
If you lived back in Germany
Charlie Daniels just shut your stupid mouth
You about as bright as a cannonball
I read your open letter to Hollywood
The devil really stole your soul after all
Chorus:
It’s real easy to rally round the flag
Any redneck can rip the Dixie Chicks
It takes a real man to stand up to the truth
Even when it is enough to make you sick
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 singin' the blues
Ask Dennis Miller why he sold his soul
To be the fascists' comic of choice
Ask every Democratic sittin' on the Hill
Where their spine went and how they lost their voice
Chorus:
It's real easy to rally round the flag
Any redneck can rip the Dixie Chicks
It takes a real man to stand up to the truth
Even when it is enough to make you sick
This land was my land This land was yours
But now it’s owned by liars and whores
This land was our land This land was great
It’s time to take it back
The hour's getting late
