Exxon Galactic
Unknown country of the black sky
Off-world expeditions explore your boundless resources of petroleum
And other things that we don't need to perfect our mission
To unite the human race behind a single vision of love and peace for the rest of time
Time waits for us with the unjust actions of a few who brush off their conscience
Mountains of silver rise above the ordinary man who extracts the lode
From moons and planets for a loaf of bread is not enough
To keep the proletariat down in the dirt where we belong
Even if they handout dijon
Capitalism is broken and everybody knows it
There must be a reason it survives without the reform that we desperately need
Now is the time to take our action with the left faction
Where has the time gone to? What did I want to say?
There is a fire inside your heart. There is a fountain
That starts to part the truth from all the lies, just open up your eyes
There is a fire inside your heart. Begin to see and now make a start
Where has the time run to? What did I want to do?
Some liberals have fought for so long to set everything
Where it belongs. Listen to the dissent; hatred is not your friend
We can bridge the gap that lies between the ignorant and the downright hateful
Find a common ground to build upon and help everybody see that
Love is the answer, take a stance and hold it 'til the end
I will tell you if you listen, something about what you're missing
Division is key. They want to tell us we're different
So we fight amongst ourselves while they plunder our lives
For anything that they can get their hands on and on it goes
When it will stop, still up to the top
Hate fuels their cause. We don't hate you, we just want to teach
And make it stop this madness before everything goes down the drain
Including your sports cars and your private jet and limousine
Look outside: hunger and strife are the norm still, make it stop
Off-world expeditions explore your boundless resources of petroleum
And other things that we don't need to perfect our mission
To unite the human race behind a single vision of love and peace for the rest of time
Time waits for us with the unjust actions of a few who brush off their conscience
Mountains of silver rise above the ordinary man who extracts the lode
From moons and planets for a loaf of bread is not enough
To keep the proletariat down in the dirt where we belong
Even if they handout dijon
Capitalism is broken and everybody knows it
There must be a reason it survives without the reform that we desperately need
Now is the time to take our action with the left faction
Where has the time gone to? What did I want to say?
There is a fire inside your heart. There is a fountain
That starts to part the truth from all the lies, just open up your eyes
There is a fire inside your heart. Begin to see and now make a start
Where has the time run to? What did I want to do?
Some liberals have fought for so long to set everything

We can bridge the gap that lies between the ignorant and the downright hateful
Find a common ground to build upon and help everybody see that

And make it stop this madness before everything goes down the drain
Including your sports cars and your private jet and limousine
Look outside: hunger and strife are the norm still, make it stop
