Lyrics: https://genius.com/Mike-the-mechanics-silent-running-lyrics
Swear allegiance to the flag, Whatever flag they offer, Never hint at what you really feel, Teach the children quietly, For some day sons and daughters, Will rise up and fight while we stood still,
Explanation of patriots going “underground” after a communist takeover; and then weaponizing their children to destroy the commies later; thought to describe Russian/Soviet history but really about Amerika’s future from 1985 forward.
Gen X are the “weaponized children” now taking down the commies.
