Viet Nam (01:27)
Minutemen • Double Nickels on the Dime
Let's say I got a number
That number's fifty thousand
That's ten percent
Of five hundred thousand

Well, here we are
In French Indochina

Executive order
Congressional decision
The working masses
Are manipulated

Was this our policy?
Ten long years
Not one domino shall fall

It's Expected I'm Gone (02:07)
Minutemen • Double Nickels on the Dime
I don't want to hurt
See, my position was here
I mean, as it was, I was

So this led to the downfall of man
I can make seconds feel hours

I make certain
That my head is connected to my body

No hope?
See, that's what gives me guts
Big fucking shit
Right now, man

Do You Want New Wave or Do You Want the Truth? (01:46)
Minutemen • Double Nickels on the Dime
A word war
Will set off the keg
My words are war
Should a word have two meanings?
What the fuck for?
Should words serve the truth?

I stand for language
I speak for truth
I shout for history
I am a cesspool
For all the shit
To run down in

Don't Look Now (01:40)
Minutemen • Double Nickels on the Dime
written by John C. Fogerty of Credence Clearwater Revival

who'll take the coal from the mines?
who'll take the salt from the earth?
who'll take a leaf and grow it to a tree?
don't look now, it ain't you or me
who'll work the field with his hands?
who'll put his back to the plough?
who'll take the mountain and give it to the sea?
don't look now, it ain't you or me
don't look now, someone's done your starvin'
don't look now, someone's done your prayin'
who'll make the shoes for your feet?
who'll make the clothes that you wear?
who'll take the promise
that you don't have to keep?
don't look now, it ain't you or me
who'll take the promise
that you don't have to keep?
don't look now, it ain't you or me

Political Song for Michael Jackson to Sing (01:29)
Minutemen • Double Nickels on the Dime
list monitors arrive with(out) petition
iron fisted philosophy
is your life worth a painting
is this girl versus boy with different symbols
being born is power
scout leader/nazi tagged as big sin
"your risk chains me hostage me
me i'm fighting with my head
am not ambiguous"
i must have looked like a dork
me naked with text book poems
spout fountain against the nazis
with a weird kind of sex symbol
in speeches that are big dance thumps
if we heard mortar shells
we'd cuss more in our songs
and cut down on the guitar solos
so dig this big crux:
organize the boy scouts for murder is wrong
ten years behind the big sweat point
man, it was still there
ever without you
coming back around
look
the coming together for just a second
a peek
a guess
at the wholeness that's way too big
at the wholeness that's way too big!

Corona (02:29)
Minutemen • Double Nickels on the Dime
The people will survive
In their environment
The dirt, scarcity, and the emptiness
Of our South
The injustice of our greed
The practice we inherit
The dirt, scarcity and the emptiness
Of our South
There on the beach
I could see it in her eyes
I only had a Corona
Five cent deposit.

History Lesson, Part II (02:12)
Minutemen • Double Nickels on the Dime
Our band could be your life
Real names be proof
Me and Mike Watt
We played for years
Punk rock changed our lives

We learned punk rock in Hollywood
Drove up from Pedro
We were fucking corndawgs
We'd go drink and pogo

Mr narrator!
This is Bob Dylan to me
My story could be his songs
I'm his soldier child

our band is scientist rock
but i was e bloom
then richard hell
joe strummer
and john doe
me and mike watt
playing guitar
