lyrics
Verse 1:
This one goes out to all the family's
That are gonna suffer at the hands of the establishment
Please know this is Not in Our Name
Every member of the 397
You should bow your head in shame
So Presidents, so Prime Ministers
Where's your empathy and integrity now?
Its unravelling before us on National TV
Chorus:
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
People die in vain
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
People die in vain
Verse 2:
Your nothing but elected, non-affected
Procurers of pain!!
We know you like to call, all the shots, from the safety
And the comfort of your office blocks
But your just 21st century war criminals!!
Chorus:
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
People die in vain
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
People die in vain
Verse 3:
We have a situation, where our politicians
have voted for yet another bombing campaign
Where jet fighter pilots and drone strike controllers
Are pressing buttons and playing war games
Setting our beautiful worlds skies alight with explosions and blue flames But they are just 21st century war criminals!!
Chorus:
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
People die in vain
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
People die in vain
Verse 4:
Our Politicians are committing thousands of men, women and children
To buried by rubble rain
Trapped beneath concrete and mangled steel frame
What we are dealing with ladies and gentlemen
Is that collectively we have elected a group of modern day war criminals!!
Chorus:
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
People die in vain
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
Not in Our Name, Not in Our Name, will people die
People die in vain
