Guerrilla Radio
By Rage Against The Machine
Transmission third world war third round
A decade of the weapon of sound above ground
No shelter if you're looking for shade
I lick shots at the brutal charade
As the polls close like a casket
On truth devoured
A silent play in the shadow of power
A spectacle monopolized
The camera's eye on choice disguise
Was it cast for the mass who burn and toil?
Or for the vultures who search for blood and oil?
A spectacle monopolized
They hold the reins and stole your eyes
The fistagons the bullets and bombs
Who stuff the banks
Who staff the party ranks
More for Gore or the son of a drug lord
None of the above fuck it cut the cord
Lights out! Guerrilla Radio! Turn that shit up!
Contact I hijacked the frequencies
Blockin' the beltway move on DC
Way past the days of bombin' MC's
Sound off Mumia guan be free
Who gottem yo check the federal file
All you pen devils know the trial was vile
An army of pigs try to silence my style
Off em all out that box its my radio dial
Lights out! Guerrilla Radio! Turn that shit up!
It has to start somewhere
It has to start sometime
What better place than here
What better time than now
All hell can't stop us now
Comments:
This is off their new album. Lyrics are current, and the song is currently
getting play on MTV which really has no choice because Rage is popular.. the
video is about sweatshop use by the Gap, it features the tag line
"everybody
in denial"
