    I bought this album about a year ago, and this is probably the best song to describe how I feel about the org now. Check these lyrics out!

    The Flaming Lips, Flight Test

    Fight Test Lyrics
    I thought I was smart
    I thought I was right
    I thought it better not to fight
    I thought there was a virtue, in always being cool
    So it came time to fight
    I thought "I'll just step aside"
    And that the time would prove you wrong
    And that you would be the fool
    I don't know where the sunbeams end
    And the starlight begins
    It's all a mystery
    Oh. To fight is to defend
    If it's not now then tell me when
    Would be the time
    That you would stand up and be a man
    For to lose I could accept
    But to surrender I just wept
    And regretted this moment
    oh that
    I was the fool
    I don't know where the sunbeams end
    And the starlight begins
    It's all a mystery
    And I don't know how a man decides
    What's right for his own life
    It's all a mystery
    'Cause I'm a man, not a boy
    And there are things you can't avoid
    You have to face them
    When you're not prepared to face them
    If I could I would
    But you're with him, now it'd do no good
    I should've fought him
    But instead I let him
    I let him take it

    Peace On Earth

    How can we have peace in the Middle East
    When there's none at home?
    How can we have understanding in the land
    When there's none in the woman and there's none in the man?

    How can we heal the wounds of the world
    If we cannot heal our own?
    And where does this peace on earth begin
    If not in the home?

    Where do we go now?
    Do we let the devil win
    Or do we get up and fight?
    Surely we know how to conquer all our fear
    Bring an end to the violence
    Bring an end to the tears

    How can we heal the wounds of the world
    If we cannot heal our own?
    And where does this peace on earth begin
    If not in the home?

    Well, there's too much talk about it
    And too many walk without it
    Where is the love?
    Where is the God in your life?
    To my left a woman abuses her children
    To my right somebody's beating his wife
    Tell me, where is the love?!!
    Where is the God in your life?!!

    How can we heal the wounds of the world
    If we cannot heal our own?
    And where does this peace on earth begin
    If not in the home?

    For What Its Worth, Buffalo Springfield

    There's something happening here
    What it is ain't exactly clear
    There's a man with a gun over there
    Telling me I got to beware
    I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    There's battle lines being drawn
    Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
    Young people speaking their minds
    Getting so much resistance from behind
    I think it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    What a field-day for the heat
    A thousand people in the street
    Singing songs and carrying signs
    Mostly say, hooray for our side
    It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    Paranoia strikes deep
    Into your life it will creep
    It starts when you're always afraid
    You step out of line, the man come and take you away
    We better stop, hey, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    Stop, hey, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    Stop, now, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    Stop, children, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down

    Fight Test - great song. Hows about some Madness?

    Madness, madness, they call it madness
    Madness, madness, they call it madness
    It's plain to see
    That is what they mean to me
    Madness, madness, they call it gladness, ha-ha

    Madness, madness, they call it madness
    Madness, madness, they call it madness
    I'm about to explain
    a-That someone is losing their brain
    Hey, madness, madness, I call it gladness, yee-ha-ha-ha

    Propaganda ministers
    Propaganda ministers
    I've a-got a heavy due
    I'm gonna walk all over you
    'Cause

    Madness, madness, they call it madness
    Well if this is madness
    Then I know I'm filled with gladness
    It's gonna be rougher
    It's gonna be tougher, pa-da-da, pa-da-da
    And I won't be the one who's gonna suffer
    Oh no, I won't be the one who's gonna suffer
    You are gonna be the one, a-you

    Ben Harper - Oppression Lyrics

    Oppression you prey on us when we sleep oppression you chase after the tired the poor the weak oppression you know you mean only harm oppression you reach out with your long arm but oppression I won't let you near me oppression you shall learn to fear me oppression you seek population control oppression to divide and to conquer is your goal oppression I swear that hatred is your home oppression you just won't leave bad enough alone but oppression I won't let you near me oppression you shall learn to fear me oppression I don't see how you sleep oppression for your bleeding conscience I weep oppression you may have the dollar on your side but oppression from the gospel truth you cannot hide and oppression I won't let you near me oppression you shall learn to fear me oppression I won't let you near me oppression you shall learn to fear me
