Country Of The Blind (feat. Bobby Gillespie)
Manichean minds hypnotised by rumours of war
The blind lead the blind, no one knows what they're fighting for
Billionaire media manipulate the masses
Poisoning the minds of the precarious classes
Sisters and brothers fighting each other
Divided and ruled, taken for fools
In the country of the blind
The one eyed man is king
It's in front of your face
But you don't see a thing
Infantilised culture
Suckered by the lie
Fear of the other
You buy it every time
Manichean times paralysed with depression, rage and pain
Can we ever, can we ever, can we ever dream again?
Cancel the future, freedom's a dirty word
Precarity, barbarity, free market insanity
Love and equality versus plutocracy
This could be heaven, it's hell where we're heading
In the country of the blind
The one eyed man is king
It's in front of your face
But you don't see a thing
Infantilised culture
Suckered by the lie
Fear of the other
You buy it every time
Country of the blind
Country of the blind
(Country of the blind)
(Country of the blind)
Sisters and brothers
Fighting each other
Divided and ruled
Finacification
Alienation
Free libertarian
Identitarian
Suicide mystics
Fascist sadistics
Absolute capitalist
Freudian death instincts
In the country of the blind
The one eyed man is king
The planet's in flames
But you don't see a thing
Infantilised culture
Suckered by the lie
Fear of the other
Marching to the right
In the country of the blind
The one eyed man is king
It's in front of your face
But you don't see a thing
In the country of the blind
The one eyed man is king
In the country of the blind
The one eyed man is king
It's in front of your face
But you don't see a thing
You don't see a thing
You don't see a thing
The blind lead the blind, no one knows what they're fighting for
Billionaire media manipulate the masses
Poisoning the minds of the precarious classes
Sisters and brothers fighting each other
Divided and ruled, taken for fools
In the country of the blind
The one eyed man is king
It's in front of your face
But you don't see a thing
Infantilised culture
Suckered by the lie
Fear of the other
You buy it every time
Manichean times paralysed with depression, rage and pain
Can we ever, can we ever, can we ever dream again?

You don't see a thing
You don't see a thing
