We Are Fucked

lyrics

Welcome to America America the beautiful
a Christian feudal system but the myth is much more suitable
The land of the free (free) home of the brave (brave)
Built on slave labor still going on today

--Only now it's outsource out of sight far from home
--Overseas Chinese children building iPhones
Making all your sneakers migrants picking peaches
We're stupid and entitled a new style of overseer

-- Cool with giving up our freedoms
-- cool with murderous police men
cool with drone strikes killing mostly innocents
cool supporting war crimes then feigning our ignorance

We are bringing freedom protecting interests
They do beheading we bomb weddings and kill infants
Damn – It’s hard to hide my disgust
We're culpable in silence and in violent blood lust

Hook:
The whole world is melting the waters catching fire
The system is collapsing it's a dying empire
And we signed up for it we signed up for it
The game can't be rigged when we went and forfeited

We signed up for it
We not them
We chose comforts
Over need not them
We sold our principles
For greed not them
We signed up for it
We not them

America America the land of the free
We gave it all way and blame them instead of we
The Deregulated the media is owned by GE
you should euthanize the radio and kill your tv

--The dystopian utopia
Everyone's on opiates Oprahs and Deepak Choperas
we all look the same we're Mario and Luigi dog
Give in to the Borg that-s the spirit like Ouija board

It’s pure micro marketing
they’re all up in your microbes maestros of the heartstring
But that’s what happens when you let your things define you
You need to keep consuming to feel human it’s a minefield

There’s still a dark part of me that wants to see Trump win
And watch it all burn as we bask in his smug grin
ha ha ha please pardon my dark humor
But it seems you need con to spell consumer.

Hook:
The whole world is melting the waters catching fire
The system is collapsing it's a dying empire
And we signed up for it we signed up for it
The game can't be rigged when we went and forfeited

We signed up for it
We not them
We chose comforts
Over need not them
We sold our principles
For greed not them
We signed up for it
We not them
