Shock Doctrine Lyrics by Total Massacre

The System Works...

2019

Flint won't have clean water
‘til the day it’s gentrified
Puerto rico won't have power
‘til the locals are all pushed stateside
And the Hiltons buy up every inch
And market paradise
Shock doctrine
It's happened before
Shock doctrine
It’ll happen again
The disaster doesn't have to be man-made
For these assholes to capitalize
Heads they win, tails we lose
It happens all the time
You'd better be born rich if you don't want to
Live in a fucking strip mine
Shock doctrine
We don't pollute white suburbs anyway
Shock doctrine
And we could all use a little more beachfront property
Shock doctrine
And really what's the point of environmental collapse...
Shock doctrine
...if you can't turn a tidy profit?
