Television in disgrace
Life you get old, it's the race,
Can you break out,
Can you break out,
Will you live at your own pace.

Life, so, unnecessary,

Television in disgrace
Life you get old, it's the race,
Can you break out,
Can you break out,
Will you live at your own pace.

Now will you live at your own pace ?
Will you live at your own pace

we fought your wars with all our hearts
you sent us back in body parts
you took our wills with the truth you stole
we offer prayers for your long lost soul
your remainder is an unjustifiable egotistical power struggle
at the expense of the american dream
of the american dream
of the american..

we don't give a damn about your world
with all your global profits and all your jeweled pearls
we don't give a damn about your world
right now, right now
we don't give a fuck about your world
with all your global profits and all your jeweled pearls
we don't give a fuck about your world
right now, right now
right now, right now

there is no flag that is large enough
to hide the shame of a man in cuffs
you switched your signs then you closed the blinds
you changed the channels and you changed our minds
your remainder is an unjustifiable egotistical power struggle
at the expense of the american dream
of the american dream
of the american..

we don't give a damn about your world
with all your global profits and all your jeweled pearls
we don't give a damn about your world
right now, right now
we don't give a fuck about your world
with all your global profits and all your jeweled pearls
we don't give a fuck about your world
right now, right now
right now, right now
right now, right now
right now, right now

no flag large enough
shame on the men in cuffs
close the blinds

your remainder is an unjustifiable egotistical power struggle
at the expense of the american dream
of the american dream
of the american..

I'm walking through your streets
Where all your money's earning
Where all your buildings crying
And clueless neckties working
Revolving fake lawn houses
Housing all your fears
Desensitized by T.V.

Overbearing advertising
God of consumers
And all your crooked pictures looking good
Mirrors filtering information through the public eye
Designed for profit sharing
Your neighbor, what a guy

Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom,
Every time you drop the bomb
You kill the god your child has born
Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom,

Modern globalization
Coupled with condemnations
Unnecessary death
Matador corporations
Puppeting your frustrations with a blinded flag
Manufacturing consent is the name of the game
The bottom line is money nobody gives a fuck

4000 hungry children
Leave us per hour from starvation
While billions are spent on bombs
Creating death showers

Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom,
Every time you drop the bomb
You kill the god your child has born

Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom,
Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom

Why must we kill our own kind?

Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom,
Every time you drop the bomb
You kill the god your child has born

Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom,
Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom,
Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom,
Every time you drop the bomb

Fish that don’t drown
Life in a bubble jungle
I wouldn't frown
Not short another chuckle
Snake in the ground
But I was there for you
Now leaving town
Life in a bubble jungle

Seeing you believing
Us adhering
The power struck

Believing you then kneeling
Appeasing
The power struggle

We're left with no arms
Right in the power struggle
We’re left with no arms
Right in the power struggle

Wearing a crown
Life in a bubble jungle
Chasing a clown
Not short another chuckle
Snake in the ground
But I was waiting for you
Now we have found
Life in a bubble jungle

Seeing you believing
Us adhering
The power struck

Believing you then kneeling
Appeasing
The power struggle

We're left with no arms
Right in the power struggle
We’re left with no arms
Right in the power struggle
Left with no arms
Right in the power struggle
Left with no arms
Right in the power struggle

May I remind you
May I remind you
May I remind you

May I remind you
May I remind you
May I remind you

May I remind you
May I remind you
May I remind you
May I remind you
May I remind you
May I remind you
Your life is in a bubble jungle

Seeing you believing
Us adhering
The power struck
Believing you then kneeling
Appeasing
The power struggle

We're left with no arms
Right in the power struggle
We’re left with no arms
Right in the power struggle
Left with no arms
Right in the power struggle
Left with no arms
Right in the power struggle

Life is but a dream
Drifting on a stream, a stream
Consciously it seems
All of what remains
Ego brain

man made shame
Shame love after it rains

You see my pain is real
Watch my world dissolve
And pretend that none of us see the fall
As I turn to sand
You took me by the hand
And declared that love prevails over all

I am just a man
Fighting other men
For land, for land
While I turn to sand
In spite of the pain
Ego brain

man made shame
Shame, love after it rains

You see my pain is real
Watch my world dissolve
And pretend that none of us see the fall
As I turn to sand
You took me by the hand
And declared that love prevails over all

All of what remains
Ego brain

man made shame
Shame Love after it rains

You see my pain is real
Watch my world dissolve
And pretend that none of us see the fall
As I turn to sand
You took me by the hand
And declared that love prevails over all

Love after it rains
