Lyrics
[verse]
Wake me up when the sirens stop their song
Tell me when the liars finally move along
I'm marching down the middle of a rigged parade
Waving my own flag that I made
[verse]
Turn on the screen and watch the same old lie
Dressed up in a flag and a patriot's disguise
I'm not buying what they're selling on the news
I got my own opinion, I got my own views
[chorus]
This is my kind of holiday, my kind of protest song
Screaming til the microphones can't get it wrong
I don't need your speeches, I don't need your parade
I'll make my own noise, in my own way
[verse]
Everybody's marching to a rhythm they don't choose
Following the drumline, following the news
But I'm cutting out my own beat on the drum
Til the rest of the choir starts to come
[chorus]
This is my kind of holiday, my kind of protest song
Screaming til the microphones can't get it wrong
I don't need your speeches, I don't need your parade
I'll make my own noise, in my own way
[bridge]
Sound off, sound off, let the static ring
Sound off, sound off, we don't believe a thing
Sound off, sound off, til the walls come down
Sound off, we're taking back the town
[chorus]
This is my kind of holiday, my kind of protest song
Screaming til the microphones can't get it wrong
I don't need your speeches, I don't need your parade
I'll make my own noise, in my own way
