Fruit of Knowledge
Illuminate the dunes of deceit
Excavate the ruins of meaning
Breathe! Breathe! Sulfuric breeze!
Drink deep petroleum seas
Feel the tame rage
Shame in the body
Rewrite your brain
Like a blank page
Or put another faceless
Baby in a nameless grave?
Hey! Why not?
The world is your video game!
Let the children play
Recruiting for a new crusade
In their name
Welcome to the US of A
We're bombing innocents in your name
And locking little kids in a cage
The world's gonna end anyday
If we don't change our ways
Assimilate!
Or you're coming with me!
See? See!
The diamonds are violence
Silencing sirens with grief
Who's free?
Cyclical prisons insist freedom is greed
My identity's a fashion statement in a fascist state.
So watch what you say!
Go and get an education
Never mind the interest rate
You can't pay!
Welcome to the information age!
They're watching you so watch what you say!
Your secrets are safe with the surveillance state, but
Who needs COINTELPRO when you have Facebook?
Living the American Dream
Forty hour week and you can't afford to eat
You could lose your cool and kill a billionaire in the street
But could you keep history from repeating?
Change our ways
Change our ways
Change our ways
Change our ways
The world's gonna end anyday
We can't wait
Excavate the ruins of meaning
Breathe! Breathe! Sulfuric breeze!
Drink deep petroleum seas
Feel the tame rage
Shame in the body
Rewrite your brain
Like a blank page
Or put another faceless
Baby in a nameless grave?
Hey! Why not?
The world is your video game!
Let the children play
Recruiting for a new crusade
In their name
Welcome to the US of A
We're bombing innocents in your name
And locking little kids in a cage
The world's gonna end anyday
If we don't change our ways
Assimilate!
Or you're coming with me!
See? See!
The diamonds are violence
Silencing sirens with grief
Who's free?
Cyclical prisons insist freedom is greed
My identity's a fashion statement in a fascist state.
So watch what you say!
Go and get an education
Never mind the interest rate
You can't pay!
Welcome to the information age!
They're watching you so watch what you say!
Your secrets are safe with the surveillance state, but
Who needs COINTELPRO when you have Facebook?
Living the American Dream
Forty hour week and you can't afford to eat
You could lose your cool and kill a billionaire in the street
But could you keep history from repeating?
Change our ways
Change our ways
Change our ways
Change our ways
The world's gonna end anyday
We can't wait
