[Verse 1] They're marching up and down The streets of every town Their boots clamp on the ground And it's a terrifying sound [Chorus] 'Cause soon, these soldiers will break our doors It's the orders handed down And when they find us hidden here They'll beat us to the ground They'll hand the shovels in the woods For us to dig our graves ...And you say, "Jesus saves" [Verse 2] They'll put us on the trains They'll pull tight on the reins They'll strip us in our pain They'll bash us in our brains [Chorus] And some may find a way To survive through the cold They'll separate the families And execute the old The rest of us will starve and die The sickness comes in waves ...And they say, "Jesus saves" [Verse 3] The bodies burn each day But we're freezing anyway And there's nothing left to say In this good ol' USA [Chorus] The day our armies marched on us We swore they'd gone insane The President ordered his soldiers To clean up the fruited plains And so, from sea to shining sea In the land of feudal slaves ...The papers read: "Jesus saves" [Instrumental Interlude] [Chorus] And when they sort the populace Our dignity turned shame Protection is the omnibus The families are the same The soldiers drown in alcohol But no one misbehaves ...They think that "Jesus saves" [Post-Chorus] And it could happen here In a nation full of fear The prefabricated tears Are cried out through the years [Verse 4] And what's the cost of our discontent? We're dissidents that scream dissent Will we let the pigs break down our doors Or fight 'em back, against the antipoor? These darkened days will corner us all And stuck behind the penitentiary walls We'll have to choose our death or fight We'll have to stand up for human rights [Refrain] Stand up for human rights Stand up, it's death-or-fight [Verse 5] Living the lies and the laws of the land Locked down in a police state While all the pigs with the power and the money Get fatter from our fate Look at the world 30 years ago And the future's plain to see They smother us all in so many lies Through the media, TV [Refrain] Stand up for human rights Stand up, it's death-or-fight [Bridge] And somewhere beyond the Thunderdome Someday, we just might find a home Autonomistic paradise Worth all the world at half the price And we can all be happy there Eat Soylent Green, breathe Soylent air And never rest our weary heads We can all sleep when we're dead [Chorus] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah We'll all sleep when we're dead Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah We'll all sleep when we're dead! [Instrumental Outro]
