Anti-Flag - No Paradise Lyrics

1, 2, 3, 4

Smoke stacks reach the sky
As talk of revolution heats the air
On every city street, in every state
The truth stands all too clear

1, 2, 3, 4

The kids are sick and tired of the news today
Sick and tired of all the lies
We want the truth

It isn't gonna be no paradise
It isn't gonna be no paradise
Forget the claims

It isn't gonna be no paradise, oh no
We need to take the world back now
We need to take control right now

Promises of a better tomorrow
Promises bought on borrowed dollars
No disaster ever looked so great

So while I say
As old men delivered that league of terror, war
We ask ourselves what are we dying for?

And so the kids are sick and tired of the news today
Sick and tired of all your lies
We want the truth

It isn't gonna be no paradise
It isn't gonna be no paradise
Forget the claims

It isn't gonna be no paradise, oh no
We need to take the world back now
We need to take control right now

The richest of the rich, dine in fancy chic cafés
Not a worry of their days
The cost of luxury, throughout empires of history
His vengeance from those empire enslaved
You better hear us now

It isn't gonna be no paradise
It isn't gonna be no paradise
Forget the claims

It isn't gonna be no paradise
It isn't gonna be no paradise, oh no
