Smash The Control Machine |
| «With the perfect hair |
| And the perfect wife |
| And the perfect kids |
| And the perfect life |
| I will finally be somebody» |
| «Let's play born-again American, resistance is the game» |
| Two pigs wearing suits brought the news that I’m wanted by the bank |
| They say the rent is due, Caesar’s on to you so you better remember your place |
| Then they outsourced my job and gave a raise to my boss |
| Bailed out the banks, but billed me for the loss |
| They say we must submit and be one with the machines |
| 'Cause the kingdom of fear needs compliance to succeed |
| So waterboard the kids for fun, it’s all the rage |
| And play born-again American, resistance is the game |
| Smash the control machine |
| Work, buy, consume, die |
| Smash the control machine |
| Happy little slaves for minimum wage |
| «The revolution will be monetized and streamed live via renegade wi-fi» |
| The clinic said I’m sick, toxic and impure |
| But there isn’t any cure for the poor or uninsured |
| So we live our digital lives on multiple screens |
| And we forget that the blood of the workers grease the machines |
| In the psalm of the fiends, love discriminates |
| While the fat cats feed the rats their dose of daily cake |
| So waterboard the kids for fun, it’s all the rage |
| And play born-again American, resistance is the game |
| Smash the control machine |
| Work, buy, consume, die |
| Smash the control machine |
| Happy little slaves for minimum wage |
| Smash the control machine |
| Work, buy, consume, die |
| Smash the control machine |
| Haters, betrayers, liars and thieves |
| She sold her soul for designer clothes |
| For the perfect lips and the perfect nose |
| The winner in the end always owns the most |
| Reality TV told her so |
| Money changer, greedy banker, this is the people’s house |
| My minister has a sinister plan to save my soul with a credit card scam |
| Exploitation is contagious for the selfish and self-inflated |
| Start a war, use the poor, watch our profits soar and soar |
| We’ve become a nation of wolves, ruled by sheep |
| Owned by swine, overfed and put to sleep |
| And while the media elite decrees what to think |
| I am wide awake, on the edge and on the brink |
| So when Atlas shrugs, and the fountainhead bleeds |
| And when Wall Street apostles preach a gospel of greed |
| I’ll renounce the fame of this glutinous age |
| And be a born-again American, resistance is to blame |
| Smash the control machine |
| Work, buy, consume, die |
| Smash the control machine |
| Haters, betrayers, liars and thieves |
| Smash the control machine |
| A nation of wolves, ruled by sheep |
| Exploitation is contagious |
| Exploitation is contagious |
| Exploitation is contagious |
| Exploitation |
