You can't understand,
Don't even wanna know
The truth about the government
The government's a show
Staged by those with "capital"
And stock in corporations
They create Recessions
And Depressions
And Inflation
They'll tell you it's your Duty
To go abroad and die
For american ideals
While ignoring all the lies
They give responsibility
while they take away the rights
And expect from us Complacency
Hell, no, I'm gonna fight
Money is the only thing
Those with Power understand
They keep it locked up tight
To keep the upper hand
Force-feed their Idea
Of the perfect "American Dream"
So now I've made my tirade
And tried to open your eyes
To shred right through the picture
And see right through the lies
They make us slaves to taxes
And Media Disinformation
And try to blame the World
For America's frustration
Ignoring all the problems
That plague us every day
Chronic urban blight
That will not go away
They'll treat you like a criminal
Unless you've got some Green
And Justice is only for the Rich
So I say make them bleed
Money is the only thing
Those with Power understand
They keep it locked up tight
To keep the upper hand
Force feed their Idea
Of the perfect "American Dream"
