Lyrics:
It's as simple as fear, as disturbing as hate, it's as fragile as humility It's the way that we deal with what we truly feel about everything we see Rally 'round a cage or act your age Like age-old messages scratched forever in a prison wall We know what we're capable of, but we don't seem to care at all Rally 'round a cage and don't make a fuss Rally 'round a cage, who am I if I'm not aware that I'm one of us? It's a question of trust Rally 'round a cage Cringe at the paper, then place the blame on "these days" As if we don't know what we've seen Unless we view it on the big screen Understand it's not getting better and it's growing outside A price paid in full for the conscience that lied All the billboards in the world can't cover our eyes I don't understand, don't tread on me Don't tread on me But we act like we didn't know Then kids shoot kids or community defies its role Then of course it's everyone's fault Except for anyone we might know Tell me, are the colors of the flag much prettier to see When viewed from the requisite comfort of the knees? We're the loyal little chorus still singing out "please" I can't understand, don't tread on me Don't tread on me One little, two little, three little pink slips, four Where family values are a value most can't afford Rally 'round a cage to the new hit songs Rally 'round a cage called "How could we be wrong?" Rally 'round a cage Come on, do the goosestep to a state subsidized sing along With one side yanking a line called damage control While groaning 'cause they feel that the national razor went dull But the other is a place we call home, where solidarity's seldom shown Where taxes paid is like a spade to a dog with a thrift store bone This isn't me This isn't me This isn't me, it couldn't be This isn't me This isn't me, it couldn't be This isn't me This isn't me, it couldn't be This isn't me
