Wage slave clock in slow death You work for chump change your in debt Working at your job is a waste of your time There is no future born in the U.S.A. You are a slave on American soil With nothing to show for your hours of toil It will be that way until your dead No time for you to live No time for you to think No time for you to make a change Sinking you can’t break the chains Work all the time for perpetual debt This is your future born in the U.S.A. Modern day slave on American soil With nothing to show for your hours of toil It will be that way until your dead Wake up work to be broke pointless prison Your work has no meaning at your shitty job there must be a better way to live Broken put in your time pointless prison Working at your job is a waste of your time There is no future born in the U.S.A. You are a slave on American soil With nothing to show for your hours of toil It will be that way until your dead

Fuck Dump 01:14
I’ve got have the Internet technology my favorite shows Obey the latest fashion trends express myself through stupid clothes I‘ve got to have a car or two so I can drive away from you Food that’s wrapped in plastic junk that soon will end up in a dump Our way of life Creates toxic muck We all trash the Earth And don’t give a fuck The problems still here After we are all dead Leave the Earth trashed for children ‘Cause we’re fucked in the head I’ve got to have the power on so I can play my stupid songs And pills so I don’t have to feel when I’m the one I want to kill I’ve got to have pounds of meat while children starve and dream of food And tomatoes in the store year round while outside there is frozen ground An island of plastic Floats in the sea Spew toxic waste Into the air that we breathe Our nuclear waste Will outlive us all Let’s fight for the Earth See the writing on the wall

Your music sucks. Top 40’s lame! All those bands that sound the same Hip Hop culture? Drug dealers are cool. Kids that murder kids at school! In your eyes you’re a shining star. Get the hell out of my bar! You Goddamned Whippersnapper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You’ve watched so much T.V. It’s told you who and what to be You’re a desensitized modern day clone Plugged into your iphone Your future on this warming earth Was left to you by Moms and Dads A world run by lunatics Get the hell off my lawn! Whippersnapper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You think you know? You don’t know. You’re too young to understand. You’re young and wild and starry eyed What you know as truth is mostly lies Here’s some truth. You’ll get old. Eat the shit that you’ve been sold Develop character through pain Understand what I am saying?

Glutton 01:02
There must be a better way to eat Than chemical flavored lard and tumor infested meat Fruit hanging on vines with mutated genes YOUR FOOD KILLS YOU You’re diets got your energy low Your hearts overworked and you brains working slow Conquer the masses through their stomachs And turn them into Piles of shit Greasy burger Cheesy fries Don’t forget To super-size Open up and shove it in Fat glutton American 14 year old video cracked out kids Obesity will be their destiny They’ve got a fast food kick And they’re off to the drive-thru The face of America Is a hungry pig With the worlds resources On its plate Order takeout while children starve Small? Medium? EXTRA LARGE Greasy burger Cheesy fries Don’t forget To super-size Open up and shove it in Fat glutton American

WWIII 00:09
World war is coming soon A failing world economy Starving children soon will see World war three Shit on the earth and no one cares Missiles flying through the air Winter comes and never leaves World war three

Zealot 02:26
You want kids to pray in school Teach creationism like a fool Wacky science must be wrong Get on your knees and pray along You undermine women’s rights At abortion clinics starting fights Kill a doctor in the name of Jesus Sanctified murder to save a fetus Your faith is based on a fairy tale Designed to control you No one knows where dead souls go But you think that you know You’re a fucking idiot No one knows where dead souls go Get on your knees and pray You hate gays and speak in tongues Learn a real language instead of a fake one Stone a woman for being raped Or help the Pope spread AIDS across Africa ZEALOT

Oblivious 02:50

Traitor Murderer Terrorist the Mr. Bush Clan Their Endless war is a business plan to feed the rich man An evil Dad and stupid son are guilty of treason They rape the world and suck it dry and send your children off to die The face of terror can always change its fucking brilliant Conquistador you claim the earth for your disposal Ten years later We’re still at war Dead soldiers Will never know what they died for In the name Of the USA We’re sent to kill So you can get your hands on oil I watch you lay a wreath at the pentagon Like you care at all about the people gone Dad set it up when he was head of the C.I.A. When the towers fell you knew that you could have you way Hypocrite With lying eyes You sold us out Your junta feeds the corporate greed You kill the earth And people to Kill yourself The only right thing left for you Bodies blown to pieces over battlefields Your hands are drenched in blood over every kill Fuck you George Bush you’re a selfish evil man And every other person who helped you hatch the plan DIE

Suicide Protest Burning Lotus Burning Lotus Hopeless Voiceless Ascension passage through flame Image of death burns into your soul Sacrifice for the voiceless masses Suffocate before the lotus falls There is no escape from what I have done Let the image of my death burn into your soul Sacrifice for the voiceless masses Ascension Passage through flame Focus my mind to block out the pain Suffocate before the lotus falls Eyes explode Blood starts to burn A charred blackened corpse dead in the street My burning flesh the stench of death it smells like pig

Punch a Christian in the face Let them know they’re fucking lame Promoting bigotry and child abuse Love for God is their excuse Steal from a Christian The way they steal from the poor Selling false hope To make their temples bigger PUNCH A CHRISTIAN Molest and rape a Christian The way they rape their children Burn the Christians like they burned the heathens In 100 years it will be a fringe religion Label their books pornographic And their language obscene Let’s oppress the oppressors And end this disease PUNCH A CHRISTIAN

Another 15 minutes of fame. Shelved away inside your brain You have a short attention span Created for you by the Man The media used as a tool To create the modern fool Truth and fiction flashing by Flip through channels and swallow lies Goddamned kids raised by T.V. Are out of touch with reality Conquer the massed by breaking our will By sensory input overkill
