War on drugs


America can not afford another Viet Nam War
Another prolonged foreign war will tear the system down from the inside
The enemy is you, the enemy is me
We got the war on drugs
We're the enemy
What it means is incarcerate all the young black men
What it means is incarcerate all the Mexicans
What it means is incarcerate all the poor whites
What it means is incarcerate all the homeless
At what point does it become ok for a person to
Stand up and say out loud
It's racist,
It's genocide,
It's slavery,
It's a police state
America can not afford another Viet Nam War
Another prolonged foreign war will tear the system down from the inside
America can not afford another prolonged foreign war
Thank God we have George Bush to find us an enemy within our own borders
The enemy is you, the enemy is me
We got the war on drugs
We're the enemy
What it means is incarcerate all the young black men
What it means is incarcerate all the Mexicans
What it means is incarcerate all the poor whites
What it means is incarcerate all the homeless
It's all been done before in the last world war
It's a solution for unemployment,
Internment
My enemy is a fucking pig
My enemy lives up in the capital
My enemy his name is Grey Davis
My enemy his name is William Bennett
My enemy wears a gun and a badge
My enemy he guards the Mexican Border
My enemy is building a prison just for me
My enemy he throws down law and order
My enemy is not a heroin junkie
My enemy is not a speed freak
My enemy is not a skid row alcoholic
My enemy does not sleep on the street

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics WAR ON DRUGS of FIFTEEN is also present in the album Lucky (1999)
