On Independence Day

Oh! I saw right through your eyes
(Whoa oh, whoa oh, whoa oh)
I saw right through your guise
(Whoa oh, whoa oh, whoa oh)
Every word that left your lips was
(Whoa oh, whoa oh, whoa oh)
Just a covert disguise to hide your absent mind
(Whoa oh, whoa oh, whoa oh)
You live and breathe, sleep and drink
Beg and plead, blind, diseased
No water can wash the blood off your hands
On Independence Day, on Independence Day
Oh! Whoa oh, whoa oh, whoa oh Whoa oh, whoa oh, whoa oh Traded the Nobel Peace Prize
(Whoa oh, whoa oh, whoa oh)
Exchanged for Vietnamese lives
(Whoa oh, whoa oh, whoa oh)
Bombs filled the Cambodian skies
(Whoa oh, whoa oh, whoa oh)
In East Timor you stood up for the wrong side
Wrong side, wrong side
(Whoa oh, whoa oh, whoa oh)
You live and breathe, sleep and drink
Beg and plead, blind, diseased
No water can wash the blood off your hands
On Independence Day, on Independence Day
On Independence Day (whoa oh, whoa oh)
On Independence Day
No water can wash the blood off your hands
No it can’t, no it can’t
No water can wash the blood off your hands
No it can’t, no it can’t
No water can wash the blood off your hands
No it can’t, no it can’t
No water can wash the blood off your hands
No it can’t, no it can’t!
