Em Em
My sister can’t afford a house
C C
And she thinks it’s her fault
Em Em
She says if she worked harder
C C
She’d have money in the vault

Am Am
And my mother needs a surgery
D D
Her hand’s always in pain
Am Am
But she fell ill last April
D D
And used up all her sick days

Em Em C C Em Em C C

Em Em
They say, the homeless need to disappear
C C
Extract them like a tumor
Em Em
A A stain on our society
C C
They’re all broken consumers
Am Am
Don’t try to put the blame on us
D D
They ruined their own lives
Am Am
It’s not our fault they got hooked
D D
On drugs that we prescribed

Em Em C C
Stars for the silver spoons
Em Em C C
Stripes for the poor
Em Em C C
Stars for the nightly news and
Em Em C C
Stripes if you oppose the war
Em Em
Stars if you steal the land
C C
Stripes if you take a stand
Em Em
Stars if you march in time
C C Em Em
Stripes if you don’t fall in line

Em Em
We send our babies off to school
C C
Our children are the future
Em Em
Then teach them how to hide
C C
Beneath their desks for active shooters
Am Am
Oh we could make a difference
D D
If we weren’t so fucking tired
Am Am
But who’s got time to fight
D D
When you’re just trying to survive

Em Em C C
Stars for the silver spoons
Em Em C C
Stripes for the poor
Em Em C C
Stars for the nightly news and
Em Em C C
Stripes if you oppose the war
Em Em
Stars if you steal the land
C C
Stripes if you take a stand
Em Em
Stars if you march in time
C C Em Em
Stripes if you don’t fall in line


C C Em Em
They want a standing ovation
C C Em Em
For the hero nation but
C C
Why should we when
Em Em
The man on the corner
Em Em
Begging for a quarter
Em Em
Lost his legs on your orders

Em Em C C
Stars for the silver spoons
Em Em C C
Stripes for the poor
Em Em C C
Stars for the nightly news and
Em Em C C
Stripes if you oppose the war
Em Em
Stars if you steal the land
C C
Stripes if you take a stand
Em Em
Stars if you march in time
C C Em Em
Stripes if you don’t fall in line

Don't fall in line
