You can call me sentimental but I still believe
In world totalitarian governmental regimes
Brainwashing the populace
Which is compliant, more or less
And down with the struggle
To turn them into slave and tramps who
Build and guard their own concentration camps
Using materials they get to choose themselves
To decorate their private hells*
*[saxophone solo noted]
All my friends feel disenfranchised
Or hopelessly naive
Chronic doubting or hiding out in ideology
Insulted by the things they read
Or stunned into silence by the
Horrid images they see
You can hide or choose a side:
Satisfied or horrified
