'cause i shit them no party system 1, 2, 1, 2 always just the 1, 2 marching in line, no we haven't got a voice 3, 4, 5, 6 will it make a difference? well won't it be better than the illusion of choice? No party system! No party system! No party system! No party system! smiling faces greet him, handshakes and a warm words a decent man, a citizen, they hand him his card the pen feels snug in her hand, as she draws the curtain and steels herself to sign away her self-determination 1, 2, 1, 2 always just the 1, 2 marching in line, no we haven't got a voice 3, 4, 5, 6 will it make a difference? well won't it be better than the illusion of choice? No party system! No party system! No party system! No party system! in the political theatre, it's the final curtain call and if we just sit and stare then it's the end for us all this vast farce mounted for the public's entertainment the program of power, while we watch it they maintain it distraction for the masses, one more reality show well, of course it's fucking real, what'd you think, this was joke? but the jokes on all of us because we've let them make the choice if it's left and right, the same old shit, then we've already lost the say they represent us, that we're the one's with the power we choose who will rise and who will fall but it's no choice at all because they represent nothing but their own little clan and they're all in it together, the brotherhood of man the lesser of two evils, well i've heard it all before and look where it got us! and we've got the same fate in store because the money keeps flowing, and we keep voting and nothing's changing but the names on the ballots but i won't vote the line anymore i won't vote against my conscience anymore if there's a real choice to be made then i'll make it to be free.... looking out from the inside we can't see that there's another way for it to be "i'm part of something larger, it's my duty," oh, that's shit when you gonna realize the whole thing's been rigged? we feel involved so we let ourselves be fooled we're complicit in our own oppression... we're their tools every time we climb into that little box we've given them our blessing to grind us down even further,to steal our rights, to spend our money on war, death, pollution to implement the final political solution we don't want to have to think, and we don't want real freedom because then we'd be guilty, we'd have to take responsibility for our own lives and they've taught us to be weak, so we can't function without rules and we won't know what to do when the system finally falls but if we can get up off our knees and face the future without fear then maybe we can find the strength to make our stand right now, right here.
