Don't ya know the difference between rights and privilege?

lyrics

Little Alamo
(Winters,Sherman)

The kids are marching
Do you hear what they're saying
Your world is changing
Your money means nothing
They have to breathe the air you made
They know the price that's paid
They're hungry for a better way
And they didn't go to school today

They see you bragging
While you're circling the wagons
What are you expecting
What are you protecting
Cause that's not freedom
That's not what you're losing
Maybe you've long forgot
But you ain't no patriot

Hey boy where will you go
Will you find your own little Alamo
Lock the doors and watch the sky
Is that the hill where you want to die
Hey boy you're already too late
The kids are banging at the gate
You think they're going to wait
Going to wait for you

See the ones in the rainbow
They know more than you know
They see more than you see
When you point blindly
You're drunk on your freedom
That's not what you're losing
You look like a dinosaur
They'll pick their battles in a bigger war

Hey boy where will you go...

Do you know your history
You're in the wrong century
You look a little desperate
Or maybe illiterate
You don't like their colour
Or the sound of their language
But they're not going to go away
And they didn't go to school today

Hey boy where will you go...
