doff your hat, shake their hand, policemen stand where policemen stand you've gotta be taught that you're not a man, the abuse of power, a line in the sand people got problems, and cities got cops and all we've got to clean this up is a bucket and a mop but policemen stand where policemen stand can't you see the truth? what they've done to you? Support Authority the disease of control, law and order, what we call courageous is merely the cowardice of the bully who hides behind his weapon because he fears the truth of his own weakness- What's it mean to you? what's it mean to me? the autumn leaves falling off the family tree. done, done, the bootblack has done to hide the blood of lessons taught with club and with gun what's it mean to us when the numbers come up? order imposed with a message of love by men, men, by plastic men, sure to find the failure when it happens again the votes are in, and the uniformed men guard the empty streets while the madmen sin in desperation, while the trees stand bare can't you see the truth? what they've done to you? Support Authority

HEROES 03:00
see ourselves at the podium, saviours of mankind chanting in our daydreams, and marching in our minds does our sainthood end with the songs we sing, dying on the vine like a fruit that rots without ripening? the revolution's fun and games until it's really not shooting guns is so much fun until you're the one getting shot The movies that we watch stir up a lust for blood they make you want to kill just like good entertainment should you hate the fucking villain, you can't wait for him to die but can you pull the trigger can you look him in the eye? the revolution's fun and games until it's really not shooting guns is so much fun until you're the one getting shot it doesn't matter what you do the one time it's all on the line it's the other part that counts, it's the other ninety-nine percent, the day to day callousness of people who are good husbands, caring mothers, compassionate doctors, animal lovers it's not all washed away... Is it a question of Revolution or Revenge? The time is long since gone when we had the luxury to pretend.

OCCUPY 01:09
new york, Oakland, boston, dallas, los angeles, portland, chicago, Seattle occupy occupy occupy occupy our streets, our cities, our futures we occupied the plazas, then we occupied the jails we occupied the spotlight, now they say our movement's failed but the real truth is different, of course they won't tell it that way the cat's out of the bag, now they can't put it away there's too many people saw it, so they can't sweep it aside even a media this corrupt can no longer close its eyes while their parent corporations have the white house on its knees You're ignored at the ballot box or counted in the streets! when it's money hand in hand with power this ain't democracy it's called fascism.... look it up!

at the head of the table, the boss sits sipping tea and with the soft hands of the bourgeoisie, i fumbled for a seat but now i labor for the masters, i bear the weight on my back should i take pride in my rough skin? in the badge of the working class? we must all be thinkers, we must all be workers we must never repeat the mistakes of the past but the weight will keep on crushing us until the means of production are in the hands of the working class but wait. there's a problem: there is no working class anymore, just oppressed and oppressor, just the rich and the poor and the gap's widening, working class used to mean something i don't mean oi! oi! thug bullshit, i'm talking about a dream! to educate our children, to live without want, without the fear of ruin always one step away it's the working. class. myth. it's all. just. a part. of the anti-intellectual, totally illogical fake populist bullshit they use to make us play our part it's nostalgia for a dream world that never existed so wake up! it's been a nightmare from the start let's have a little party, and everyone can come just close the door behind you, don't want to let the riff-raff in is this the dream you've got shoved up your ass? a safe and tidy world for the smiling middle class? well, hang on, there's a problem: there is no middle class in this country anymore just the elite and their servants, and they offer us nothing but the False. Promise. of Freedom. through Slavery! if there's no seat at the table I'll just sit on the floor and keep on searching for the future they had promised me before but the only thing i see in the bottom of my tea cup is Class War!!!

Love and hate, two faces of the god Love and hate, morality at odds make the connection, homophobia, the mission, missionary money, oh God hear it pray the voice of hate, but who is speaking? Who gets the payoff, and who's gonna pay? understand the truth: it flows down the years like water from that charming dictator made for Hollywood slaughter a lunatic on the shores of reason a people freed from what? From the passing seasons by poverty and death, Uganda, Dada, oh heavenly father, madman, murderer, enemy of life, enemy of love and now it still continues, Lord's Resistance, shit, you fuck your Lord would spit upon you, if he knew that you existed The God of the death camps, the God of the crusades genocide personified at the head of the parade nothing remains, no legacy but death Government, profiteering no economic motive to stop the killing so the blood flows on and on and on young men taken, their future gone torn from mothers, the rape of families while the newspapers print 100 names and faces the headline "Hang Them" by their side the byline reads: son. of. god. no more holy wars no more suicides no more killing in the name of god how dare you call it Fellowship, when all it is is HATE if that's the Family of Christ thank God I was born to a different fate all the outcasts, all the children of the wartorn lands all the orphans of the culture wars too young to understand So many have died can't condone abortion but you revel in the deaths of American children whose only crime is love hand in hand, they want a second genocide to murder every single gay person who's alive if not by sword and gun, then by Government sanction Bachmann, Lively, Santorum, Rick Warren I weep for the death of David Kato but I'll shed no tears when the hangman comes for you So many have died for this thing that we call love So many have died suffering in their love
