From Songs For Change
Chorus
Not in my name, not in my name no
Not in my name, not in my name no
Well your lips might move, but the truth's not there
And your eyes might shine, but your heart don't care
When the storm clouds break and the west wind blows
There's a choice to make between love and bombs
When you scorch the soil, ain't no way back
To the rich the spoils, it's a cynical attack
Chorus
There's a dust cloud there in the cancer air
There's a baby's cry and there's a mother's despair
What did they do wrong, what did we do right?
Been a suffering long far away from our sight
When they scorch the soil, ain't no way back
It's a war for oil on the people of Iraq
Chorus
Take heed of what we say, your towers will fall someday
Black liquid gives no protection
Be sure of this one thing, when you're no longer kings
All of your lies and deceptions
Were not in my name, not in my name no
Not in my name, not in my name no
Not in my name, not in my name no
Not in my name, not in my name no
Well your lips might move, but the truth's not there
And your eyes might shine, but your heart don't care
When the storm clouds break and the west wind blows
There's a choice to make between love and bombs
When you scorch the soil, ain't no way back
To the rich the spoils, it's a cynical attack
Chorus
There's a dust cloud there in the cancer air
There's a baby's cry and there's a mother's despair
What did they do wrong, what did we do right?
Been a suffering long far away from our sight
When they scorch the soil, ain't no way back
It's a war for oil on the people of Iraq
Chorus
Take heed of what we say, your towers will fall someday
Black liquid gives no protection
Be sure of this one thing, when you're no longer kings
All of your lies and deceptions
Were not in my name, not in my name no
Not in my name, not in my name no
