The Anti-War Movement has an Anthem

The anti-war movement declares it has an anthem. "We Don't Want Your War" is being played by protesters worldwide as the song by musician Jynkz strikes an emotional chord.

If you haven’t heard it yet you will. It’s traveling fast and far as computer-savvy war protesters worldwide have embraced a song written by San Francisco musician Jynkz. The anti-war fans are using the Internet to hurl emails and post links about the song faster than you can say, "We Don’t Want Your War".

"Now we have an Anthem", writes web publisher Lew Rockwell giving Jynkz front page coverage on his tremendously popular anti-war Web site, LewRockwell.com. "We Don’t Want Your War is nothing short of heroic", Rockwell proclaims. And he isn’t the only one that thinks so. Downloads of the song from the Jynkz web site are skyrocketing. Fans are coming from all over the US and all over globe to listen.

"I’ve received emails from Singapore, Mexico, Holland, Italy… it’s phenomenal", states Jynkz. Some visitors leave a brief message on his site but most come to download the song. Jynkz gives the song away for free as his way of raising the noise to oppose war with Iraq. Many fans also come to see the gut-gripping music video of the song, which depicts stirring images that question the validity of the Bush administration’s push for war.

"I wanted to do something," explains Jynkz, "and music is my way of expressing how I feel. I’m thrilled to have contributed a song that can really touch so many people." And touching he is, tens of thousands of people have visited his site in the two weeks the song has been out and the numbers are increasing daily, especially now that radio stations in the US and Europe are beginning to play it.

Jynkz lives in San Francisco, California, where he writes and records his own music. He has recently released his second solo CD. His unique style and expressive vocal technique give his music the kind of drama that people can feel. Feel it for yourself by visiting his web site at http://www.jynkz.com.
When you can't believe a word they say
And you're haunted by the swords they raise
Like a rabid dog we've seen before
They refuse to hear the world pounding, pounding down their door

We don't want your war
Let's yell a little louder now
We don't want your war
All stand together tall
We don't want your war
But you keep telling us, you keep telling us we do

The king has no clothes so he leads by fear
We must challenge all the lies we hear
The devil's 'bombs' has an oily smell
Frames a legacy with infamy and he burns it, he burns it into hell

We don't want your war
Let's yell a little louder now
We don't want your war
All stand together tall
We don't want your war
But you keep telling us, you keep telling us we do

Try to turn us into lemmings with their magic on TV
Leaking military secrets is one of their specialties
To reporters hanging on their words like schoolgirls in love
They've got the scoop, but we're no closer to the truth

If we raise our flag on a million graves
Will we all be proud or will we be ashamed?
Of our leadership, greedy and arrogant
And we'll all be judged by the choices, the choices that we made

We don't want your war
Let's all sing a little louder now
We don't want your war
All stand together tall
We don't want your war
But you keep telling us we do
We don't want your war
All stand together and yell
We don't want your war
All stand together tall
We don't want your war
So stop telling us, Stop telling us we do

Versione francese da http://lyricstranslate.com
On ne veut pas de votre guerre
Quand on ne peut pas croire un mot de ce qu’ils disent
Et qu’on est hanté par les épées qu’ils brandissent
Comme un chien enragé qu’on a déjà vu
Ils refusent d’entendre le monde qui tambourine, qui martèle à leur porte

On ne veut pas de votre guerre
Crions-le tous ensemble un peu plus fort
On n’en veut pas de votre guerre
Soyons tous ensemble résolus
On n’en veut pas de votre guerre
Mais vous n’arrêtez pas de nous dire, de nous dire que si

Le roi est nu, alors il règne par la peur
On doit dénoncer tous les mensonges qu’on entend
Les bombes du diable ça sent le pétrole
Arnaquant un héritage par l’infamie et il le brûle, il le brûle jusqu’en enfer

On ne veut pas de votre guerre
Crions-le tous ensemble un peu plus fort
On n’en veut pas de votre guerre
Soyons tous ensemble résolus
On n’en veut pas de votre guerre
Mais vous n’arrêtez pas de nous dire, de nous dire que si

Ils essaient de faire de nous des lemmings avec leur magie à la télé
Divulguer des secrets militaires est une de leurs spécialités
À des journalistes suspendus à leurs lèvres comme des écolières amoureuses
Ils ont le scoop, mais on n’est pas plus proche de la vérité
Si on dresse notre drapeau sur des millions de tombes
Est-ce qu’on en sera fiers ou est-ce qu’on en aura honte ?
Et on sera tous jugés par les choix, par les choix qu’on a faits

On ne veut pas de votre guerre
Crions-le tous ensemble un peu plus fort
On n’en veut pas de votre guerre
Soyons tous ensemble résolus
On n’en veut pas de votre guerre
Mais vous n’arrêtez pas de nous dire que si
On ne veut pas de votre guerre
Crions-le tous ensemble un peu plus fort
On n’en veut pas de votre guerre
Soyons tous ensemble résolus
On ne veut pas de votre guerre
Alors arrêtez de nous dire – arrêtez de nous dire que si
