I'm part of the plan, a real live wire I'm part of the plan and part electric corps Born to die, not to lose There's a light in the eye, it reflects fire It has the right to apply to what's needed, hearts to soar Don't mean to imply the light is higher Nor mean to imply we can be answered for Another down, another death on you Others that ignore your hate, doing what they do Another clown leads the band of fools Another broken heart, bleeds red, white and blue I'm part of the plan, a real live wire I'm part of the plan and part electric sun Born to die, not to lose I'm lost in the gone and taking fire I'm waiting for dawn these colors just won't run In honor's embrace they do aspire In honor's embrace no harder nor undone And who'll be the first man to stand in the dark of the night And who is the last of the last men to make it all right, damn right A complicated problem and the question is the answer You can give me liberty or I can give you death Damn right And if this man falls who will carry this flag to the fight And if this man falls who will carry him out of his night, damn right It's a simple answer to a brotherhood in blood You can give us liberty or we can give you death Damn right, you can give us liberty or we can give you death
