The Thoughts are Free (MP3 - sing along with George)

If you will click HERE:(MP3-sing along with George, you will be able to download this very well done satyrical song, which is based on an old German protest song, which has its roots in past centuries. The song was forbidden during the Nazi days. This recording is courtesy of the RajaDefNet Singers, from Louisville, Kentucky:

Oh, the thoughts they are free, but that's not true for oil
so the things we must do, will make your blood boil
you might think it's wacky to kill an Iraqui
for my new SUV, but the thoughts they are free.

The contracts are gone, they went to Halliburton
They'll do the job best, George Bush says he's certain
Dick Chaney's a'cheerin', he loves war profiteering
I'll tell you no lie, he's a very rich guy.

So why did we go? George says cause of terror
and the weapons we'll find, but of course he's in error.
And if you ask old bin Laden, his Freude is Schaden
there were no al-Quaeda ties, so we killed the wrong guys.

Die Gedanken sind frei, but don't start to talkin'
If you disagree, John Ashcroft is watchin'
and if you'll sit for a spell, I'll go on and on about Orwell
and 1984, 'cause we ain't free no more.
