Disenfranchised

A corporation is a man
More than I'll ever be
A comfortable life
Buys my complacency

Class war
Boycotts, protests and labor strikes
Revolution at the ballot box
Never seems to materialize

This is how it dies
We've been disenfranchised
Government by the people
Witness the sequel
This is how it dies
We've been disenfranchised
Government by the people
Witness the sequel

They say destroy the useless eaters
Exploit the useful idiots
It was a mistake to put our faith
In the corporate fourth estate

Anything I say
Can and will be used against me
Free speech will never trade
On the New York Stock Exchange

We've been marginalized
Commoditized
Don't be so surprised
Everybody has a price
We've been commoditized
Bastardized
Don't be so surprised
Everybody has a price

Can we divest from this self interest?
Can we divest from this self interest?
Can we divest from this self interest?
And try something different
Try something different
Try something different
The answer might be no
