Song language: English
Old Regime |
| Privilege from birth, abhorrence of work, obsessed with sovereignty |
| Aristocrats claim an exemption from the standards of democracy |
| A secret antipathy to justice and equality |
| And a tightly constrained definition of who is free |
| Old regime, smoke of history |
| Liberty still wafting in the breeze |
| The new aristocracy just smells like the old regime |
| They think that they can alter and sway which version of freedom reigns |
| If everything is subjective then what good is truth anyway? |
| A plutocratic strategy or technocrat conspiracy |
| Or a vision of utopia that only the besotten can see? |
| Old regime, smoke of history |
| Liberty still wafting in the breeze |
| The new aristocracy just smells like the old regime |
| An unabated tendency to tyranny is still in place |
| And the ancient nobility’s complexion differs just in name |
| Old regime, smoke of history |
| Liberty still wafting in the breeze |
| A new season dawns with ominous prophecy |
| Yeah, the new aristocracy just smells like the old regime |
