Some of those that work forces
Are the same that burn crosses
Some of those that work forces
Are the same that burn crosses

Some of those that work forces
Are the same that burn crosses
Some of those that work forces
Are the same that burn crosses

Killing in the name of
Killing in the name of

And now you do what they told ya
And now you do what they told ya
And now you do what they told ya
And now you do what they told ya

And now you do what they told ya
And now you do what they told ya
And now you do what they told ya
And now you do what they told ya

And now you do what they told ya
And now you do what they told ya
And now you do what they told ya

Those who died are justified for wearing the badge
They're the chosen whites
You justify those that died by wearing the badge
They're the chosen whites

Those who died are justified for wearing the badge
They're the chosen whites
You justify those who died by wearing the badge
They're the chosen whites

Some of those that work forces
Are the same that burn crosses
Some of those that work forces
Are the same that burn crosses

Some of those that work forces
Are the same that burn crosses
Some of those that work forces
Are the same that burn crosses

Killing in the name of
Killing in the name of

And now you do what they told ya
And now you do what they told ya
And now you do what they told ya
And now you do what they told ya

And now you do what they told ya
(Now you're under control)
And now you do what they told ya
(Now you're under control)
And now you do what they told ya
(Now you're under control)
And now you do what they told ya
(Now you're under control)

And now you do what they told ya
(Now you're under control)
And now you do what they told ya
(Now you're under control)
And now you do what they told ya
(Now you're under control)
And now you do what they told ya

Those who died are justified for wearing the badge
They're the chosen whites
You justify those that died by wearing the badge
They're the chosen whites

Those who died are justified for wearing the badge
They're the chosen whites
You justify those that died by wearing the badge
They're the chosen whites
