Lyrics

Take Your Flag Down
words and music by Ben Evans

does flower power look ridiculous?
is fire power your sacred trust?
you say peaceful ways don't produce
your war dispays produce abuse
ah now take your flag down
take that dirty rag down
take your flag down
come and take it
take it
down

the more your inner world is a mess
the more you put everybody else to the test
now you've got a change to put us all through
the only one who needs to change is you
you now...take your flag down
oh take your dirty rag down
come and take your flag down
come on and take it
take it
down

take a permanent break
from the laws you make
you keep tryin' to force your fake
mother nature state
turn in your keys
and get down on your knees
learn how to breathe
in the mystery

the more your inner world is a mess
the more you put us all to the test
you've got a change to put us all through
the only one who needs to change is you...
take it, take it down
come on and take your dirty rag down
take your flag down
take it down
take it, take it
down
