America, The Damned
Seven o'clock
Another day
Go to school, go to work
Do just as we say
Do this, do that
Look ahead but watch your back
And do it with a smile
Because you've got to earn that pay
Don't dare ask a question,
You wouldn't wanna hear the answers, anyway.
Never stop
To wonder why
Just do as you're told
And watch generations die
Worship our idols
Religiously
It's an altar, it's a dollar
It's a face on your TV
Don't dare ask a qustion,
You wouldn't wanna see the things you'd
have to see.
Just go on living our lies
It's not important to you
To ever think about why
Because you've got better things to do...
Don't slow down
Or you might see
The most pitiful slave
Is the one who thinks he's free
(and that's you and me)
Stay in line with the master plan:
Land of Liberty, or
America, The Damned
Don't dare ask a question,
You could never possibly understand...
Just go on living our lies
It's not important to you
To ever think about why
Because you've got better thing to do...
