Hail to the Thief |
When i was a boy, i pledged |
My allegiance to the flag |
It’s image that of righteousness |
Since faded into life less rag |
A mirror of what we’ve become |
A portrait of the deaf and dumb |
But maybe being blind is being free |
Some one’s stealing all our unity |
With idle hands they sow the seeds |
Growing only false democracy |
Who can we thank for all our grief |
Hail to the thief |
It’s hard to see through all this honesty |
Tattered by the weather |
Torn from violent storm |
Our pride of who we are |
Has been washed |
And beaten into form |
What have we become |
Funny looking caricatures |
Our belief in who we are |
Confiscated for their purse |
Something’s draining our identity |
Like being weakened by a curse |
Politicians feed hypocrisy |
Who can we thank for all our grief |
Hail to the thief |
It’s hard to see through all this honesty |
Hail to the thief |
Idiocy beyond belief |
Hail to the thief |
We’re being sold short for dishonesty |
Hail to the thief |
