We've been insulted boys

And we must not hesitate

And the ones who disagree

We'll put them in their place
Those malcontents, muckrakers

Protesters in the street
Won't make you feel uncomfortable
G
I'll lay 'em at your feet
[Chorus 1]

I'll make us strong again

You'll sleep safely in your beds

Remember you're the one who chose this scorpion to kiss

Your skin-and-bones grandchildren

They won't ask me the tale

For their orphaned world that bleeds
G
For all those days you slept instead of learnin' from history
