In this time of war – I only believe Cesar
Solo creo que Cesar
In this time of terror-ism perpetrated by lying
governments who have been lying to us
since before I was born
I only believe Cesar-
Solo creo que Cesar
My poor brown brainwashed brother is dying in Iraq-
my pobre brown father died in
Nam – and my grandfather died trying to come here in a bus full of other poor
migrant workers –
They all died – they were all lied (to)
and now I only believe in you Cesar
And you Cesar.. aren’t even here –
