It's What Your Country Can Do for You
Have we reached the final exit?
As they unleash their hate upon us
The struggle to evoke free spirits
Returning their control in vain
As time is slowly ticking all away will the strong survive?
Just one more day
Should we put our trust in all?
Who say God will lead us on that glorious day
Regain control, life is passing by for sure
Regain control in essence, there may be no cure
It's not what you can do for your country
It's what your country can do for you
They'll take away your freedom
All your rights to help you find a job working
For their corporate human machine
That's right, you need to work for the human machine
There is certainly no other way
You need to get up every morning and punch that time clock
You are a machine, a human machine working for your government
So they can become stronger and more powerful
So they can crush the enemies of their so called civilized societies
The time has come to remove the pork bellies from their political throne
In an age of oppression
These power mongers must be brought down to their knees
And slaughtered like the swine they are
The rich should be made to share their assets
With the poor and underprivileged of the world
It's time for the youth of today to take a stance
To stand up and be counted
Freedom is nearly lost, freedom as you and I know
It will be soon a thing of the past
As the governments assume all control and dictate the way all shall live
The future is bleak is bleak, is bleak
As they unleash their hate upon us
The struggle to evoke free spirits
Returning their control in vain
As time is slowly ticking all away will the strong survive?
Just one more day
Should we put our trust in all?
Who say God will lead us on that glorious day
Regain control, life is passing by for sure
Regain control in essence, there may be no cure
It's not what you can do for your country
It's what your country can do for you
They'll take away your freedom
All your rights to help you find a job working
For their corporate human machine
That's right, you need to work for the human machine
There is certainly no other way
You need to get up every morning and punch that time clock
You are a machine, a human machine working for your government
So they can become stronger and more powerful
So they can crush the enemies of their so called civilized societies
The time has come to remove the pork bellies from their political throne
In an age of oppression
These power mongers must be brought down to their knees
And slaughtered like the swine they are
The rich should be made to share their assets
With the poor and underprivileged of the world
It's time for the youth of today to take a stance
To stand up and be counted
Freedom is nearly lost, freedom as you and I know
It will be soon a thing of the past
As the governments assume all control and dictate the way all shall live
The future is bleak is bleak, is bleak
