[Verse 1]
These bastards stole their power from the victims of the Us v.Them years
Wrecking all things virtuous and true
The undermining social democratic downhill slide into abysmal
Lost lamb off the precipice into the trickle down runoff pool
[Chorus 1]
They hypnotized the summer, nineteen seventy-nine
Marched into the capital brooding duplicitous, wicked and able, media-ready
Heartless, and labeled, Super U.S. citizen, super achiever, mega ultra power dosing. Relax
Defense, defense, defense, defense
[Chorus 2]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ignoreland
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ignoreland
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
The information nation took their clues from all the sound-bite gluttons
Nineteen eighty, eighty-four, eighty-eight, ninety-two too, too
How to be what you can be, jump jam junking your energies
How to walk in dignity with throw-up on your shoes
They amplified the autumn, nineteen seventy-nine
Calculate the capital, up the republic my skinny ass
TV tells a million lies
The paper's terrified to report
Anything that isn't handed on a presidential spoon
I'm just profoundly frustrated by all this
So, fuck you, man (Fuck them)
[Chorus 2]
[Bridge]
If they weren't there we would have created them
Maybe, it's true
But I'm resentful all the same
Someone's got to take the blame
I know that this is vitriol
No solution, spleen-venting
But I feel better having screamed, don't you?
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 2]
