When they ban books and build bombs
You know that it's bad times
Bulbous bulging pockets while the poor man bums
Once it was worse, so be grateful scum

Come and see this, all that we undone
Rampant destruction of ancient wisdom
Come now take these drugs we made for ya
While we cut and rape your nature

Call it progress or you a backwards hater
If you can't be wage slaves then meet your maker
Program minds like a python creator
Don't like what we see and we bring out erasers

We laugh as you're blind to all that's at stake
And drown all your sorrows in alcohol lakes
Break all your backs and cry at the tax
And point your dumb fingers at the browns and the blacks

Pay no mind to us at the top
And pay for distractions we feed you
It's one of the ways we never close up shop
Gotta love livestock that need you
