When life nearly died, denial was heightened By the short-term minds, to keep their high and mighty Until the gravity of our future situation arose And the high fell back to earth And as they watch the time run out, they punch the clock and it breaks When salvation is financialy unviable, we've made a mistake Progress seems a contradiction, still we try to push this fiction Sold on a dream, but the payment is a nightmare And you know it, so now you can show it Shoot the breeze, you won't blow it
(chorus) You don't have to be so guarded i won't judge you We can forget the social role play if that's alright too I know you're pretty far from normal and you can see through They set our world on fire for pleasure Destroyed through brand new
Organised to fail, hypocracy is all that's on sale And when the freedom ship has sailed Dictatorship will prevail, all be it soft controll Still puts us deep in the hole And now we're eating ourselves out of existance With American persistance Our mouths are busy munching The numbers are busy crunching Before it goes up in smoke We need to get thought provoked
(chorus)
If you're gonna tear it down You best tear it down good 'Cause they'll build it up and charge you double If you're gonna tear it down You best tear it down good Don't want to pick your arse out of the rubble If your gonna hang around express yourself 'Cause represion will cause you trouble
