Red Flag Lyrics
Artist(Band):Billy Talent
Review The Song (83)Print the Lyrics
Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag warning never meant the same,
the kids of tomorrow don't need today,
When they live in the sins of yesterday. (x2)

Well I've never seen us act like this,
our only hope is the minds of kids,
and they'll show us a thing or two.

Our only weapons are the guns of youth,
It's only time before they tighten the noose,
and then the hunt will be on for you.

We don't need them

Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
the red flag wavin' never meant the same,
the kids of tomorrow don't need today,
when they live in the sins of yesterday. (x2)

Like a smallest bee packs a sting,
Like a pawn checkmates a king,
we'll attack at the crack of dawn.

Build a ladder if there's a wall,
don't be afraid to slip and fall,
speak for yourself or they'll speak for you.


We don't need them

Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
the red flag wavin never meant the same,
the kids of tomorrow don't need today,
when they live in the sins of yesterday. (x2)


Like a fire
don't need water,
like a jury
needs a liar,
like a riot
don't need order,
like a mad man
needs a martyr.

We don't need them.(x8)

Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
the red flag wavin' never meant the same,
the kids of tomorrow don't need today,
when they live in the sins of yesterday. (x2)



(We don't need them, we don't need them) Cast off the crutch that kills the pain
(We don't need them, we don't need them) The Red Flag waving never meant the same
(We don't need them, we don't need them) The kids of tomorrow don't need today
(We don't need them, we don't need them) When they live in the sins of yesterday


We don't need them

Review about Red Flag

Red Flag | Reviewer: cheer | 12/3/09

Red Flag is my favorite song. It's the very first song I heard by Billy Talent and I loved it!! beautifully written song :)
Guys, let's get back to the song. All of these countries are amazing, but let's get back to Red Flag =]



review was done on a PSP, thats why a few words are cut off | Reviewer: Tucker | 10/22/09

People on the internet need to learn how to spell, if you want to be respected as someone who passed grade 4 IMO. Now that Ive said that, I would just like to tell everyone that when you argue with trolls, they win. To the small percent of ignorant (matt) 11 year old dumbasses (matt), ask your teachers about what happened when the USA tried to invade Canada. The song is one of the few Billy Talent songs I actually like. BTW, I Have nothing against the USA, and as a Canadian, I admire most Americans passion



Great song | Reviewer: magma9495 | 9/16/09

I'm not canidian but I love this song and band. Nothing wrong with canada. Wish I could actually go there, would be a nice vacation from USA. Anyway, doesn't it sound like he's saying "the red flag WOMEN" not "red flag WARNING"? just what I think ;P



I've matured, so get along with the song | Reviewer: Brandon Lemieux | 8/25/09

I've matured guys, so get back to the song.

And also for those people who say we're maple syrup sucking fag its or like ride polar bears ( even though I don't think anybody did) fuck off.

Also, this isn't flame or somethin bad. But in winter, if you blame Canada for the snow that goes down to your country (still not flame or somethin bad, just pointin out a fact) most of it comes from the rockies in Colerado.

Anyways still great song, will always live in my Billy Talent top ten list



HAHAHAHAHA! | Reviewer: Sam | 8/1/09

I love this song. i am actually amused and surprised at quite how many extremely talented canadian bands there are...
But. the amount of crap alot of the 'reviewer' are coming out with on here makes me laugh alot. bunch of idiots should maybe read about the subject they're going to talk about before mentioning it. also. i despise America, and the problems they cause the rest of the world. but blaming them for everything, or saying they're the only ones is well... just plain dumb.



O.O It was written | Reviewer: Church (RvB) | 7/23/09

People need to stop saying "Quit trying to bring politics into this!" If the song was written WITH a political meaning, then politics WHERE meant to be brought into this. Canada's majority is Democratic, the US's majority is Republican. SO if American/Canada is corrupt is going to be a matter of opinion, point blank. (America IS becoming Democratic now) Stop getting so worked up about it, and STOP with the negitive Canadian stereo types. I'm American, and I have friends who was Canadian who are BRILLIANT! I have my opinions on the matter, but I prefer not to share them. (Especially on the internet when people hide behind there MAGICAL shield, and be offensive. You wouldn't be offensive in r/l, but you have the nerve to be an ass and do it online. Look up "RvB Internet vs Real Life")
...
This song is awesome. All Billy Talent's songs have depth and aren't just whining about crap. I don't like metal cause you can't understand what people are saying, but this is cool cause you CAN understand what there saying, with it holding the consistency of metal.

(he IS 11!! And he's a racist on this site to. Not towards Canadians but blacks)



Meanings. | Reviewer: Virtue | 4/10/09

The band itself is mainstream, but better than all other shallow emo whining. Their lyrics make sense, other thing is do the listeners get the message and act accordingly, or just listen to good music.

Red color (red flag) means strife, readiness and will to struggle for something. That's why communists had it.

And, I think, with that line he meant that long ago americans had long hair, sang songs and smoked weed (crutch) and more, to protest warstarting, greedy, unhuman government.
But nowadays people see only the surface of things and he's trying to explain, that "the red flag waving never meant the same".

And that's not surprising, even Soviet people, who were raised and tought morals, went through very good (the best there was for a thousand years) system of education, read hundreds of classics and all.. and now they're just like everyone else, some even worse.

Children were born smart before, now it's horrifying, how the system diligently makes them unhealthy idiots from the minute they are born.

Smoking and drinking parents are hardly to make normal child. People don't see it, because conception "normal" is lowered.



good song | Reviewer: Bowen | 3/4/09

ok first of all this song is a good one.

second of all this brandon kid os well only a kid i mean he fucking 11 but u guys are attacking him like he killed somone so just let him be stupid he will hopfully grow out of it and not make such dumb comments.

third to "the only one hear whos not a dumb fuck" fuck you ok we dont go startin wars we are peace keepers we go to countrys and try to keep it out of war and u havnt saved us from shit now im not tryin to diss usa or anything there great i just dont like arigent people like you and also fuck you callin us "mapel syrup sucking leaf hugging canadians" u fagot fuck why dont u go fuck your self.

forth of all its a song its not ment to be riped apart to find the meaning its to be enjoyed so stop tryin to bring the econimy and political shit into this just enjoy the song and stop being so anal about what the lyrics mean okay...



ZEITGEIST | Reviewer: Macdog | 1/19/09

If anybody really wants to get this song you must absolutely watch the film Zeitgeist. All you folks bitching about Canadian and American stereotypes will see that the whole system is f'ed in American and just as bad in Canada. All problems with how f'ed up things are all boils down the all mighty dollar those that control this precious "imaginary" resource control all aspects of everything that we see and do in our lives those people are the Federal Reserve. Everything has been manufactured since 1913. And I really think it's about f'ing time that we all did something about it and took our lives back as human beings.




why | Reviewer: tim | 12/22/08

man what is wrong with all of you? All of you? Get so uptight... For what? There's no reason. I live in south africa and i've been to both america and canada, i spent months in both countries. And well... I'm sorry... I was less than impressed with the majority of ppl from both countries. Yeah we have our problems this side... But like... Wow... You guys are so uptight about everything. This is a pretty good example :P chill out... And if this other dude is only 11 he obviously has a lot to learn, but u guys attack him... Dudes, he's 11... But hey... I guess this is why i don't live there!
