A nuclear bomb this has got to be illusion
A Mexican standoff with no clear solution
Walk it walk it back till we've dropped of a cliff then
We climb right back up just to suicide over
Ring around the proxy war pockets of Posy
Posing as strength while pretending it's Rosie
I remember reading on the crisis in Cuba
Pigs in the bay nearly caused a world war then
We funded the Contras to fight Sandinistas
10 years later Contras fought to defeat us
They've got the power to
Keep the wheel moving with the cogs in the grooves
They've got an interest to
Keep the people passive while they're making their moves
Keep consuming Keep collecting Keep digesting what they're feeding
Keep passive and keep quiet the last thing people should do is riot
They know that it's wrong but maintain the illusion
That everything's clear cut and has a solution
An old white man in a red tie and suit who
Promises strength and colludes with the Russians
Blaming the poor while he sends that to war
Well isn't that just what a proxy war's for?
Then Russia invades their good neighbor Ukraine while
We hold back the funds to get dirt on our rivals
One year later we will make a good profit
Selling bombs to Ukraine while we collect intel
They've got the power to
Keep the wheel moving with the cogs in the grooves
They've got an interest to
Keep the people passive while they're making their moves
Keep consuming Keep collecting Keep digesting what they're feeding
Keep passive and keep quiet the last thing people should do is riot
Keep passive and keep quiet One last thing: People should riot
