This is just another leftist manifesto
Harvested from a Baltimore ghetto
Marketed from a hillside in Idaho
Its impossible for me to sit silently by while
People are held without benefit of trial;
Poor folks lose their homes as investment bankers smile
And a nation of millions sits there in dumb denial
Wondering who'll win American freakin' Idol
(Complacency- like a cancer, rotting our society!)
I am just a member of the immoral majority
Silly me- I choose death o'er not being free
I don't want big brother spying on me
I'd choose a thousand 9/11s, you see
Over another bush-esque hijacked presidency
The rednecks may cry foul, but I prefer anarchy;
To this lie of freedom- a corporate controlled "democracy."
Patriotism is the last refuge of scoundrels steeped in stupidity.
(Complacency- like a cancer, rotting our society!)
Am I not entitled to have my say?
Yes its my intention to keep getting in your way.
Just to the left of Hugo Chaves is where I plan to stay
This land is my land as much as it is your land,
or is that a notion that's beyond your meager capacity to understand?
This is just another scathing indictment of capitalism
Where greed is rewarded and power seduces like religion
Where the rich white rulers profit from social division
(complacency-like a cancer, rotting our society!)
But I'm not buying into the American dream
I won't blindly root for the imperialistic conquerors known as the home team.
