Celebrate Columbus day
the Indians were made to pay
Teach manifest destiny
kill Indians to reach the sea
Imperialism is O.K.
Because the natives like it that way
Glorify the atomic bomb
Destroy the world to make us strong
We taugh you everything you know
Conform to the status quo
Follow us we run the show
Submit your mind and help us grow
Lie to us about colonization
Forced allegiance to a dying nation
Punish our insubordination
Education is Indoctrination
Democracy the eternal good
install dictators where freedom once stood
The war on drugs is morally right
imprison Blacks instead of Whites
Support the war against Hussein
To put the oil in our name
Learn to hate the communists
That's our excuse to use our fists
We taugh you everything you know
Conform to the status quo
Follow us we run the show
Submit your mind and help us grow
Lie to us about colonization
Forced allegiance to a dying nation
Punish our insubordination
Education is Indoctrination
Schools are designed to make you fit
into your little covial niche
They teach what they want you to know
so you'll fit in the status quo
Just be aware of what they do
take nothing at face value
Question what you hear and see
remember what happened in Germany
the Indians were made to pay
Teach manifest destiny
kill Indians to reach the sea
Imperialism is O.K.
Because the natives like it that way
Glorify the atomic bomb
Destroy the world to make us strong
We taugh you everything you know
Conform to the status quo
