Lyrics

"la-di-da-dum"
wake up
you must have lost your goddamn mind
well somehow we let a handful of power hungry leeches hold the fate of all mankind
while the cost of living keeps going up
the richest rich keep taking cuts
the working folks keep getting tricked
they better pray real hard they don't get sick
when no one can afford to get higher learning
all we'll have is the scraps as our earnings
and they claim that they got there by their own merits
when there's nothing left for us do you think that they'll share it?
wake up
you must be dreaming if you're thinking that the billionaires give a fuck
well good luck
take your daily dose of fear then put another sticker on your truck
as you pine about nostalgia for the good ol' days
and then vote against self-interest because a fear of change
when instead of fish there's only plastic in the seas
and no more plants are getting pollinated by the bees
as chemicals get dumped in your drinking water
the coastlines just keep on getting shorter
do you like being bitten by ticks and mosquitoes?
constant droughts, fires, floods, blizzards and tornadoes?
now ask yourself
what is all this arguing really all about?
and what is it that divides us?
well, hey, listen up, and just let me help you out
it's big businesses, banks, big government,
big religions all for the one percent
nationalism used to excuse wars
while skepticism simply gets ignored
drilling coasts and mountains when the sun is free
while all the proceeds go to big companies
that lie about a trickled down economy
well they don't owe you one damn thing
they won't give back anything
everyone loses if there is no unity
