lyrics

Our children consume neurotoxic fumes, at a rate that we cannot calculate,
Our children are told to pledge allegiance to the market and the state,
let's revolt against that corporate thunderbolt, Let's expropriate the resources that the robber barons own,
the anarchists they have receded the empire has grown, and history is a mystery the future is unknown,
the economic race is rigged but people are still gambling, people still vote on rulers politicians are still rambling,
about hypothetical jobs I swear they will one day be created after a few dissident countries are conveniently invaded,


The american dream is nonexistent, the american dream is for sale,
the american dream is a hallucinogen the american dream is stale,
The american dream is a phony friend, the american dream is your enemy,
The american dream created a disease in order to sell you a violent remedy,

We have traded morality for the illusion of luxury, we have traded an economy based on gifts and needs for wage labor and usury,
We are living in the realm, of hungry ghosts, politicians and bosses are parasites and we are their hosts,
we are forced to supply our oppressors with their ammunition,
while our families suffer from avoidable malnutrition,
I just want to dodge avoidable pain,
and I want extra armor for my brain,
because this bulletproof vest and this helmet is not going to protect me from the American Empire,
the market gave you a wallet just to steal it from your pocket, tomorrow we will try to repair yesterday's flat tire,

because

The american dream is nonexistent, the american dream is for sale,
the american dream is a hallucinogen the american dream is stale,
The american dream is a phony friend, the american dream is your enemy,
The american dream created a disease in order to sell you a violent remedy,
