Bone-headed, blood-reddened Jesus Christ wannabe
Afflicted, narcissistic Republican patsy
Democrat under the sheets, forced Masonic imagery
You’ll be whatever they tell you to be
Jarhead, look-alike, cult fetish symmetry
Screaming slogans like some kind of machinery
Imperialistic scheme called an American Dream
You’ll believe whatever they tell you to believe
Look at all the sheep flocking to the shearing
Look at al the guilty pleading at their hearings
Part of a system with no individuality
But open arms to menial mentalities
Fuck this system and everything about it
I think we are all better off without it
Second class dreams stored in atrophy
It’s all of part of their grander scheme
Fuck this system and everything about it
I think we are all better off without it
All the right and left care about is their greed
Leaving the rest of us to beg on our knees
Patriotic, type-A, co-dependent personalities
You’d really depend on a government for everything?
Call my paranoid, schizotypal misanthropy
Anything but misguided rhetoric against your country
No gods, no masters
Take down the flags from the rafters
No bullshit, no lies
Who would you rather trust with your life?
Look at the sheep flocking to a shepherd with pride
Our entire civilization was built on lies
To protect those with means from those without
We'll never finish on top the way it’s planned out
Fuck this system and everything about it
I think we are all better off without it
Second class dreams stored in atrophy
It’s all of part of their grander scheme
Fuck this system and everything about it
I think we are all better off without it
All the right and left care about is their greed
Leaving the rest of us to beg on our knees
So smash all the windows, break down all the doors
To all of the establishments that we abhor
Corporations are who own this whole country
So let’s hit em where it hurts, in their pockets that are so deep
Fuck this system and everything about it
I think we are all better off without it
Second class dreams stored in atrophy
It’s all of part of their grander scheme
Fuck this system and everything about it
I think we are all better off without it
All the right and left care about is their greed
Leaving the rest of us to beg on our knees
Fuck this system and everything about it
I think we are all better off without it
They treat us like dogs giving us scraps to eat
Just so we can continue treating them like kings
Fuck this system and everything about it
I think we are all better off without it
Working till we die just to make ends meet
While they retire early and live out our dreams
