The Lyrics
Satire about Amnesty International's recent human rights report blasting the Bush Administration for setting up a world-wide network of secret prisons, characterized as "America's Gulag."
(instrumental intro)
Prison cells... 'cross the ocean.
Hidden from the sun... unseen foreign shore.
You won't see them...
That's the wish of W.
"Terr-ists" all, rendered to prison cells.
Seized from Afghanistan, Iraq;
The breach of law is surely true.
So long as war... ain't over...
For the Czar, more torture's what he'll do.
Prison cells... 'cross the ocean.
Hidden from the sun... unseen foreign shore.
You won't see them...
That's the wish of W.
"Terr-ists" all, rendered to prison cells.
(instrumental break)
Seized from Afghanistan, Iraq;
The breach of law is surely true.
So long as war... ain't over...
For the Czar, more torture's what he'll do.
Prison cells... 'cross the ocean.
Hidden from the sun... unseen foreign shore.
You won't see them...
That's the wish of W.
"Terr-ists" all, rendered to prison cells.
Prison cells... 'cross the ocean.
Hidden from the sun... unseen foreign shore.
