Born into snow dreamed of an endless springtime
I’d never know in this picture show
When I was a child I never “got” my parents
could not understand the troubles they had
Born into snow
life will go on within and with out you
life will go on this thing I know
Grasp at the truth like some fisherman lost on the water
riding the waves in a bay full of fog
born into snow
hear this world hum all day from the noise of its engines
silence is something we’re all raised to fear
and our words begat storms and there will be noise forever
and what becomes dear may soon disappear
born into snow
When I was a child I dreamed of an endless summer
that I’d never know in this picture show

I would rather die standing than live on my knees
and show some backbone to religious disease
I would rather die standing than live on my knees
bombastic teachings of a stone age tribe
violent preachings of a hateful scribe
they have a hit list of journalists
women and teachers, their evil persists
I would rather die standing than live on my knees
and show some backbone to religious disease
I would rather die standing than live on my knees
you hypocrites and cowards can try to appease
they want our silence, they want us in fear
they want our submission to the myth they hold dear
their hateful God that they serve with their guns
their treatment of women as slaves to their sons
I would rather die standing than live on my knees
and show some backbone to religious disease
I would rather die standing than live on my knees
you hypocrites and cowards can try to appease
the slaughter of teachers by the Taliban
atrocities committed in the service of man
how can you call it a religion of peace?
their Jihad demands submission or death but
I would rather die standing than live on my knees
and show some backbone to religious disease
I would rather die standing than live on my knees
you hypocrites and cowards can do as you please
but I would rather die standing than live on my knees

Arizona Song
No habla espanol in this town
No habla espanol in this bar
No habla espanol in our church
this is our Arizona song
No habla espanol in this store
No habla espanol in our state
No habla espanol in Wal Mart
this is our Arizona song
for we stole this land a long time ago
we stole it fair and square from the Mexicans, Apache, and Navaho
yes we stole this land a long time ago
No habla espanol in my yard
No habla espanol in our school
No habla espanol in our parks
this is our Arizona song x2
we'll have a tea party at the Alamo
and build a Berlin wall on the border
of the US and Mexico
No habla espanol in my yard
No habla espanol in our state
No habla espanol in this town
this is our Arizona song x2
no habla espanol.....
