They Live

leaders of the land playing god

control our senses pavlous dogs

kept sedated brainwashed to submit

a life of torturous hell is what our leaders give

(see you dont know this but...)

theres many things that we do wrong

were worthless unemployed

and theyd rather have us gone

were fucking up the city

and were taking up their space

so theyre importing dopefor us

with hopes well someday die

our lives are being sucked dry

just to be sacrificed

for a fascist, sexist, lie

they keep it all illegal

so they can always lock us up

but they still want us to dope

so were to dumb to rise above

and if that doesnt do it

and were still in th way

theyve created a disease for us

with no cure (or so they say)

work away a lifetime

just to end up dead

conveniently provided

with the drugs to fill your head

educations limited

by governments control

they only teach you what they think

you really ought to know

televisions just a reinforcer of control

readjusting thoughts

robs you of your soul

desensitize the public

to violence, sex, and greed

watch us kill eachother

for our wants and needs

all the sins are here for us

indulge and have some fun

they tell us not to murder

but theyll just sell us the guns

dont count on the system

to by easy on you

cause the rich can buy their freedom

and the poor will be their tools

in you follow instruction

and do as your told

life will be much easier

theyll fit you in the mold

theyre working for a better world

harmonious, and new

peace, love, and unity

except for you and you and you....
