Declare Independence
Declare independence!
Don’t let them do that to you
Declare independence!
Don’t let them do that to you
Start your own currency
Make your own stamp
Protect your language
Declare independence!
Don’t let them do that to you
Declare independence!
Don’t let them do that to you
Make your own flag!
Make your own flag!
And raise your flag!
(higher, higher)
Raise your flag!
(higher, higher)
Declare independence!
Don’t let them do that to you
Declare independence!
Don’t let them do that to you
Damn colonists
Ignore their patronizing
Tear off their blindfolds
Open their eyes
Declare independence!
Don’t let them do that to you
Declare independence!
Don’t let them do that to you
With a flag and a trumpet
Go to the top of your highest mountain!
And raise your flag!
(higher, higher)
Raise your flag!
(higher, higher)
Declare independence!
Don’t let them do that to you!
Declare independence!
Don’t let them do that to you!
Raise the flag!
