about

World Trade Center Tower Seven was not hit by a plane. What brought it down?

A majority of the official 9/11 Commission have disavowed the report issued by the commission.

lyrics

Tower Number Seven
Geo. McCalip © 2013 BMI

You know where you were on nine eleven
But do you know about Tower Seven?
We all saw how Towers One and Two fell
Turning Manhattan to a living hell.

But no plane from hell or heaven
Brought down Tower Number Seven.

It stood a building and a block away,
Or it did ‘til just after five that day.
Not hit by a plane, or bomb, or bullet,
The tower dropped when they said to pull it.

And no plane from hell or heaven
Brought down Tower Number Seven.

It was pulled as a matter of safety;
Something they decided over coffee.
They made it sound like it was no trouble
To turn it into a heap of rubble.

And no plane from hell or heaven
Brought down Tower Number Seven.

They collapsed all forty-seven floors down
Neatly into its footprint on the ground.
It was clear the building was demolished
A professional job, very polished.

And no plane from hell or heaven
Brought down Tower Number Seven.

It was our generation's Pearl Harbor,
A false flag to justify PNAC's war.*
That's when they started to beat the war drums.
That was the day that we lost our freedoms.

And no plane from hell or heaven
Brought down Tower Number Seven.

Yes, on the day those towers were pulled down,
They left our country shattered on the ground.
For America to reclaim its soul,
It's time we demand that the truth be told.

Because no plane from hell or heaven
Brought down Tower Number Seven.

* If you do not get the reference, Google, "PNAC, our generation's Pearl Harbor".
