I hear the shock jocks screaming Pointing the finger of blame Voices of middle aged white men Rolling on a river of shame I feel fear in the light of my flat screen I got fear-mongers on my phone Rip off merchants and racketeers Keep bringing the bad news home There's a blood moon rising on the highway I got an empty feeling…what've we become? A million voices screaming But I just keep on dreaming Red flags of Mayday in the sun I hear billionaires moaning Tangled in the web they've spun Drowning in creature comforts Proud of the work they've done
They keep on blaming the victim The wretched the weak and the poor Invisible hands are grinding us down Don't know who to believe anymore There's a blood moon rising on the highway I hear the old school singing “We will overcome!” A million voices screaming But I just keep on dreaming Red flags of Mayday in the sun In the sun Red flags of Mayday in the sun There's a blood moon rising on the highway I hear the old school singing “We will overcome!” A million voices screaming But I just keep on dreaming Red flags of Mayday in the sun
