Stars and Stripes |
A tyrant is a man who allows his people no freedom |
Who is puffed-up by pride |
Driven by the lust of power |
Impelled by greed |
Provoked by thirst for fame |
Divided and conquered |
Gripped by fear |
Wishful thinking that it can’t happen hear |
It’s well underways but nobody knows |
A repeat of history |
That’s how it goes |
Tell the people that they’re under attack |
By man-eating foes from mars or iraq |
Mobilize outrage |
Muzzle dissent |
Send in the troops |
Strike the pre-empt |
Stars &stripes |
Learn how to fight |
We come together by the dawn of the light |
Oh so proudly we hail as the rockets red glare |
Stars &stripes |
Control the airwaves |
Fuel the reaction |
Use every weapon of mass-distraction |
Turn active people into passive consumers |
Feed 'em bogus polls and harebrained rumours |
Cut back civil rights |
Make no mistake |
Tell 'em homeland security is now at stake |
Whip up a frenzy keep 'em suspended |
Don’t let 'em know that their liberty’s ended |
Everything goes in the desperate states |
The veneer of democracy rapidly fades |
Wreak total havoc on all opposition |
In any event fulfill your mission |
Totalitarian media sensation |
You will give 'em domination |
Never mind they call you a liar and thief |
By now you’re undisputed commander-in-chief |
