The Sworriors - New Old America Lyrics

It's the 21st century gerontocracy
A world of century-old privatized democracy
When people huff leaded gas, put asbestos in walls
And cigarettes put your cancer on hold
This new reality half-baked in mystery
Full of foul play, falsehoods, and lies
Brought to you by sellouts of democracy
Who just tell you to focus on the "other guys"
A land of law and order ruled by felons and grifters
Folks who promise to only hurt "the Others"
Where rich oldies cry over persecution
In a system which gives them endless protection
It's just New Old America!
Thousands die with weapons of lies!
New Old America!
Billions spent for gears of a war machine!
New Old America!
Stupefy kids with twisted Christianity!
New Old America!
A new world caked in nationalist tripe!
Give the rich more money to buyback their stocks
And sell out the public to their shareholders
Subsidize gas, keep it cheap, force car ownership
Make mass transit a crime for peasant placeholders
Give terrorists guns and defend mass shooters
But then blame crime on the "other side"
Complain about how expensive everything is
But don't raise wages or prevent career suicide
"What do you mean you can't afford a home?"
"Why can't you find a job?"
"This is easy, just look at mine
It offers me five mansions and three yachts"
It's New Old America!
Thousands die with weapons of lies!
New Old America!
Billions spent for gears of a war machine!
New Old America!
Stupefy kids with twisted Christianity!
New Old America!
A new world caked in nationalist tripe!
New Old America!
Have a fight over who's more wrong!
New Old America!
Invade for power, but leave them to rust!
New Old America!
Imprison dissenters living in your thoughts!
New Old America!
This new world caked in nationalist tripe!
