Requiem for Tookie Williams

Nora Roman and the Border Busters
Language: English




They killed Tookie Williams this morning
at twelve thirty five
He grew to reject killing
so they couldn't leave him alive.
Kill kill kill it's the american way,
Kill Kill Kill it's the american way..

I want to go into hiding
not know about all this pain.
I do not belong to your evil land
I'm not gonna share the blame.
I won't Kill, kill kill cause it's the american way
I won't Kill, kill kill cause it's the american way

You evil beings who make the guns
who torture and who bomb,
How do you sleep, how do you live
with all the pain you cause?

You kill kill kill it's the american way,
You kill kill kill it's the american way..

No war is a good war
and no execution is just.
You who want these awful things
you're infected with blood lust.

You kill, kill kill it's the american way,
You kill, kill kill it's the american way

None of your warped values
will get me to join in,
I will not buy, I can't be bought,
I have no original sin.

I won't kill, kill, kill cause it's the american way
I won't kill, kill, kill cause it's the american way

I am not an American,
I belong to no man's state
Patriotism is a social disease,
wake up before it's too late

Don't kill, kill, kill cause it's the american way,
Don't kill, kill, kill cause it's the american way,
Don't kill, kill, kill cause it's the american way,
Don't kill, kill, kill cause it's the american way,
Don't kill, kill, kill cause it's the american way…

Don't kill, don't kill, don't kill, don't kill, don't kill.

Don't kill…
