“U.S. war tax? We won’t pay! / Let them find another way!”
“No sanctions, no bombing, no war! / We ain’t payin’ for it anymore!”
“Hey, hey, ho, ho! / War taxes have got to go!”
“1-2-3-4 / Feed the people not the war!”
“Tax money for human needs / Not for wars and corporate greed”
“Not a penny, not a dollar / We won’t pay for Pentagon slaughter!
“Send a billion dollars and rush it through / Bullets, drones, advisors too / Obama, Congress, shame on you!”
“One billion sure spends fast / We’re here to say, remember the past!”
“Spending billions on U.S. copters / They kill Iraqi sons and daughters!”
“People, people, people, can’t you see? / They’re killing with war tax mon-eey”
And try this rap from the BAY-Peace Youth Action Team flash mob video from 2012 — still timely! Here are the lyrics:
People, People, People, can’t you see?
They kill around the world with tax money.
Stealing from workers how their money’s made,
I guess that’s why we’re broke and they’re so paid!
People, People, People, can’t you see?
They tax the poor more, the rich stay greedy.
No money for health or to educate,
I guess that’s why we’re broke and they’re so paid!
