Feed the flames and inhale the ash Ideology settles and cultures clash Viral outbreaks of poisoned words To be heard and revered as we brave the lash Automatic, programmatic disbelief to break this static Disenchantment by savagely dogmatic fucking policies To rise above the secrecy amidst the afterglow The things one does to gain recognition Will never be enough Misled by pieces of paper It will never be enough It will never be enough Let me cast one manuscript into the sheet of time And now you begin again All hands aside But you are not Remember you've been told But why I do not what? The things one does to gain recognition They will never be enough This granite stone ain't moving for you, so... Think I'd roll in a ditch? Your controllable bitch It's so mad to be sane oh Dancing for you Sucker Right everybody, here tonight we've got the wonderful Slip-along Jack McTravis He's all the way from the South of England, and he's here to make your night It once was said there will come a time When I shall kneel or sit on my hands Carry on like a mindless mule Sound of mind no more Musing if I'm going to downgrade Polarize my core Yet not show a frown And step in line They become wisdom kings and they Say your life is all pissed away Claim you're lying regardless and they live the same, oh-oh! They become autocratic and they Say your life is all pissed away Claim you're lying regardless and they live the same, oh-oh! (Unless our policies change dramatically The middle class will disappear And we will be back to late 18th- century France Before the revolution And so I have a message for my fellow filthy rich For all of us who live in our gated bubble worlds Wake up people Wake up sheeple It won't fucking last!) Pitchforks are going to come for us The torches are going to come for us Pitchforks are coming for us They become autocratic and they Say your life is all pissed away Claim you're lying regardless and they Live the same, oh-oh! (Just a barred hole in the wall) Just a barred hole in the wall (Just a barred hole in the wall) Just a barred whole in the wall Just a barred whole in the wall This door will stay closed They become wisdom kings and they Say your life is all pissed away Claim you're lying regardless and they live the same, oh-oh! They become autocratic and they Say your life is all pissed away Claim you're lying regardless and they live the same, oh-oh! Selling your soul is to say that it's over That it's over Yeah, selling your soul is to... Selling your soul is to... They become wisdom kings and they Say your life is all pissed away Claim you're lying regardless and they live the same, oh-oh! So when they feel I got a mind made of steel I'm going to rock You know I'm heading for a 1,2,3,4 I'm like a real atomic bomb I'm like a real atomic bomb I'm like a real atomic bomb You want me to shake? Shake baby! No society can sustain This kind of rising inequality In fact, there is no example In human history
