No, "Mr President", I will not stand I will not chant your pledge While you crush me under your iron boot No, "Mr President", I will not salute you I will not wish you good luck When you wish for people like me to change I'm sorry, "Mr President", for being AFRAID I will hold my breath as my rights Are slowly stripped away I'm sorry, "Mr President", but I will not subside I will not stand idly by While your reign of terror fills the skies And I'm not sorry, "Mr President", for wishing you had lost For you will drive us into the ground And you'll get your way, at any cost.
