Anti-Flag
Vieques, Puerto Rico: Bikini Revisited
All united, all as one
Let's make a stand
We've got a privilege in the power
That we command

So let's not drown in ignorance
And let our strength waste away
As the richest nation in the world
We've got a responsibility

Vieques, Puerto Rico, a protectorate
Of the USA
Part a home to native families, the rest
A Navy bombing range

Shells they misfired kill civilians there
And napalm hangs in the island air
But the government beats down protests against this misuse

[Chorus]
So
Stand up, fight back
Resist, refuse
'Cause if we don't do it
No one's going to
So
Stand up, fight back
Resist, refuse
'Cause if we don't do it
No one's going to
I look into the eyes of a dead island boy's face
His remind me of another's
From a different time and place

Where A-bombs baked the ground
Of Bikini's tropical lands
Where a culture was erased
Families replaced
By a Nazi-esque like [?] plan

All done
In your name
By Uncle Sam
So if we don't fight it
Then we're guilty too

[Chorus]
So
Stand up, fight back
Resist, refuse
'Cause if we don't do it
No one's going to, oh

I think it's 'bout time that we had a change
I think it's 'bout time that we make a change
I think it's 'bout time that we had a change (Yeah!)
I think it's 'bout time that we make a change (Yo!)
I think it's 'bout time that we had a change (No!)
I think it's 'bout time that we make a change
Make a change, a change, a change
'Bout time we had a change ([?])
'Bout time we make a change ([?])
'Bout time we make a change
Change
'Bout time we make a
We make a change
