about

A song about indoctrination, capitalism, neoliberalism, the establishment left and such

lyrics

Part one, you're planning some fun
For holiday
Cut to: a bomb in your shoe
(or so they say)
Take your time with your confession
Was the bag in your possession always?
State your name and your profession
Make this inquisition pleasant please

They teach you to believe what you are told
From the time you're fifteen minutes old
You grow up and then purchase what you're sold
If all else fails they'll buy back all your gold (for a fee)

Next scene, they stick you for the green, the legal way
They filibust, and gain the public trust
It's broadway
At your request the your director's
Sleeping with the private sector openly
Beginning at the end,
you call the same some change again
and pat your back

They teach you to believe what you are told
From the time you're less than one year old
You grow up and then buy what you are sold
If all else fails they'll buy back all your gold (for a fee)
And say "the market's free"
