Buildings buildings you tear down once a day
Shopping, copping a feelgood from dismay
Selling fear and discontent every way
There is no choice all buyers must obey
A regiment that gets blown up for some cash
Murdering the people when the markets crash
The golden country that was meant to share
Has been divided up, there's fences everywhere
Fed on fear the people will not share
Rat on your neighbor, we'd all better beware
Too many choices, how can one decide?
Who demanded these bads they have supplied?
If I copy you I just might fit in
A celebrity lottery, everyone wins
The barbarians are inside the gates!
Should I cash in now or is it too late?
A history book has hit us on the head
We are managed instead of being led
I have a dream that we will see it through
But not before it gets a lot worse for me and you
