You burn the truth at midnight; The flames light up the sky.
You stand around and warm your hands, and watch our freedoms die.
You start your wars for Mammon; For capital and greed;
Start your wars for land and oil, and watch our children bleed...
CHORUS
No blood for oil! No oil for your 'freedom',
Your freedom is worthless; When you pay with our lives.
No blood for oil! No oil for your 'freedom',
Your freedom is worthless; When you pay with our lives.
You shackle us with terror; You blind us all with fear.
And all the while you tear away, at all that we hold dear.
Turn neighbour against neighbour; Breed hate beneath the sun.
Smash our doors; start your wars, with a bible and a gun...
CHORUS
BRIDGE
And all around the world, the calls for peace crash in like waves,
But you ignore our very cries, and send us to our graves....
CODA: I said, No blood for oil!
You stand around and warm your hands, and watch our freedoms die.
You start your wars for Mammon; For capital and greed;
Start your wars for land and oil, and watch our children bleed...
CHORUS
No blood for oil! No oil for your 'freedom',
Your freedom is worthless; When you pay with our lives.
No blood for oil! No oil for your 'freedom',
Your freedom is worthless; When you pay with our lives.
You shackle us with terror; You blind us all with fear.
And all the while you tear away, at all that we hold dear.
Turn neighbour against neighbour; Breed hate beneath the sun.
Smash our doors; start your wars, with a bible and a gun...
CHORUS
BRIDGE
And all around the world, the calls for peace crash in like waves,
But you ignore our very cries, and send us to our graves....
CODA: I said, No blood for oil!

"This is Jim Lesses, in Adelaide, Australia. I see you have the lyrics to my song, No Blood For Oil, on your website. I see too, that you do not have biographical information about me on your site, so I am including a short biography below.
Your site would be a lot more useful if you could provide links to the websites of some of the songwriters represented on your site, and where available, links to MP3s of the songs.
For instance, my web address is: www.jimlesses.com
