The Emperor’s Clothes

[Intro]

First they hit with phase one

Air strikes, all day and all night

Phase two, rockets hit the Gaza Strip with phosphorus

Phase three, ground attack

How we gonna counter-act

[Refrain]

Boycott, divest, and sanction

[Verse 1]

Israel, you should be ashamed

Kill and maim thousands of civilians in our name

Claiming you hitting terrorists but children in your aim

Even murder relief workers, blood spilling from they brain

While they tried to drive the ambulance

Damn they couldn't stand a chance

Even bomb students, hospitals, mosques, Rafah, and Khan Yunis

Shot em in the back like the cops to Oscar Grant

And in each case the good old United States sponsored that

Seven million a day that we pay tax

And AIPAC's lobbyists is robbing us

Sometimes it feels like there ain't no stopping this

But now nobody can deny it cause you made it too obvious

Naked truth exposed like the emperor's clothes

The struggle's getting hotter and the temperature rose

Since 1948, when you formed the state

Palestinian people still defending their homes

They ain't been surrendering, no

[Refrain]

Boycott, divest, and sanction

Cause they even bombed the United Nations

[Verse 2]

Look, I'm Israeli, my government's so arrogant

War criminals who call Palestinian's terrorists

For resisting extinction and occupation

Comparing this to genocide and reservations of Native Americans

It's a massacre, kick out their ambassador

Divest from their apartheid like South Africa

Boycott em like King to Montgomery buses

Show them we want peace but only with real justice

They murdering the media and witnesses left

We gonna stop shopping at all the businesses that invest

In building their settlements and gentrifying our corners

Illegal walls over there and the US-Mexico border

Build a worldwide movement til the truth is heard

And supporting the Israeli's who refuse to serve

All the C.O.s who AWOL when deployed to Iraqi stations

All the people rallying while the cops are chasing

If we enlisted in the system, we got an obligation

We ain't got the patience, time to stop the occupation, yeah

[Refrain]

Boycott, divest, and sanction

Til there's right of return for displaced and reparations
