Screeching Weasel - El Mozote Lyrics

somewhere in el salvador there's a grave for 700
pits full of guts and kids who were tortured and hunted
by death squad soldiers who won't ever be purged or punished
paid for by a government that our tax dollars funded

el mozote [x3]

but that was so long ago and our officials have retired
and once the stench is gone it's easier to forgive liars
and there's so many atrocities this nation's since acquired
and a my life doesn't mean much when the papers stay quiet

el mozote [x3]
