Bastards Will Pay Lyrics
You make our decisions
You make our rules
Then you make us fight your stupid wars
That's going too far
Come on people let me hear you say
You bastards, you're gonna pay
You tell us not to steal
You tell us not to kill
Then you let us fight for your country
That's tell us to die
Come on people let me hear you say
You bastards, you're gonna pay
Reach for yourself and your battered mates
The time has come
I'm not talking bout no revolution
I only want to find a solution
I want to change the world
You can't fight 'em with words
You can't fight 'em with rage
Fight 'em with peace and love
It's your only chance
Come on people let me hear you say
You bastards, you're gonna pay
You make our rules
Then you make us fight your stupid wars
That's going too far
Come on people let me hear you say
You bastards, you're gonna pay
You tell us not to steal
You tell us not to kill
Then you let us fight for your country
That's tell us to die
Come on people let me hear you say
You bastards, you're gonna pay
Reach for yourself and your battered mates
The time has come
I'm not talking bout no revolution
I only want to find a solution
I want to change the world
You can't fight 'em with words
You can't fight 'em with rage
Fight 'em with peace and love
It's your only chance
Come on people let me hear you say
You bastards, you're gonna pay

This song's such a fucking awesome shout-along. Clearly about the corrupted nature of government and how the "bastards" running it are gonna fuckin' pay big time hahaha. So sweet how Wagner yells out: "COME ON PEOPLE, LET ME HEAR YOU SAY! 'YOU BASTARDS, YOU'RE GONNA PAY!'"
