My question is on the Rage Against the Machine song "Killing in the Name". I checked the band's website and couldn't find the lyrics, which is not surprising since the band doesn't exist anymore.For those of you have actually heard the song, you know what I'm talking about, does Zach de la Rocha sing "burn" crosses or "bore" crosses?In other words, are the lyrics:"Some of those that work forces, are the same that BURN crosses"OR"Some of those that work forces, are the same that BORE crosses"

that's weird... I just checked the CD and the lyrics for that one song are omittedI always assumed it was "burn" because it makes sense to the song... likening the cops to the KKK
-
rofl
-
so yeah in the future just use google its alot easier
-
lol and ina blazing 1 minute ahead DANTEK TAKES THE LEAD!!!
-
Google? Yeah thanks, like I didn't think of that. The reason I ask is because I got absolutely no confirmation off of google; the band's official websites had no lyrics, and I found lyrics pages that had both BORE and BURN, didn't exactly answer my question, as you can imagine.
-
o well the ones i saw had bore they probably had to make a different version considering someone had to have bitched about it so inititially it might have been burn
-
OMG, I always thought it was 'burn' too. I used to dance to that song Mr. U.
-
at one point it probably was burn than someone bitched and they made em change it but who knows or some of the lyrics site got it mixed up or something
-
I'll dance with you lovey
-
hahahaha
-
seriously, how much does Audioslave suck? I mean, I LOVE Tom Morello, he's a badass guitarist, and I loved Soundgarden, and I know Audioslave is entirely different from Rage, but the world's just not the same without Zack de la Rocha's singing/rapping/screaming
-
actually, Audioslave doesn't suck, but I do miss Zack de la Rocha.
-
I like audioslave! and I LOVE soundgarden much oooh. Always thought RATM lyrics said burn crosses... it sounds like that to me. Mind you, I am half deaf... lol
-
my brother saw audioslave live and said they were really gooddefantly not as good as RATM though
