lyrics
Evicted out from my home
The banker says I don't belong
You know I try to do what's right
Politician says I'm what's wrong
Sweat and blood for the company
That gave me a respiratory disease
All the tolls I cannot pay
Along the gilded path I paved
I'm just following my orders
Beating up the protesters
Why don't you try arresting your peers and your bosses
Then move on to the ones that bought them
No triumph of the American dream this is
Father to son oligarchy
Too big for arrest or incarceration
Banks and corporations the new nations
So called free market reeks of corruption
If the game is rigged is it still capitalism
The pen is mightier than the sword
But we lost them both so long ago
They own the discourse thats how they blind us
If money talks that leaves us voiceless
I want my bosses to pay taxes too
Fill their accounts while they steal from you
Bulldoze the ghettos to build golf courses
Command personal military forces
The invisible hand is under the table
Cloaked in false laissez-faire fables
The whole world is ripe for exploitation
Privatized globalization
So called free market reeks of corruption
If the game is rigged is is still capitalism
The pen is mightier than the sword
But we lost them both so long ago
They own the discourse thats how they blind us
If money talks that leaves us voiceless
This is shelter from tax, this is Goldman Sachs
Bank of America, this is super P.A.C.s
The climate change debate, congressional lobbies
Penn Road in Crossett, Koch Industries
When fascism comes to America
It will have corporate sponsorship
The banker says I don't belong
You know I try to do what's right
Politician says I'm what's wrong
Sweat and blood for the company
That gave me a respiratory disease
All the tolls I cannot pay
Along the gilded path I paved
I'm just following my orders
Beating up the protesters
Why don't you try arresting your peers and your bosses
Then move on to the ones that bought them
No triumph of the American dream this is
Father to son oligarchy
Too big for arrest or incarceration
Banks and corporations the new nations
So called free market reeks of corruption
If the game is rigged is it still capitalism
The pen is mightier than the sword
But we lost them both so long ago
They own the discourse thats how they blind us
If money talks that leaves us voiceless
I want my bosses to pay taxes too
Fill their accounts while they steal from you
Bulldoze the ghettos to build golf courses
Command personal military forces
The invisible hand is under the table
Cloaked in false laissez-faire fables
The whole world is ripe for exploitation
Privatized globalization
So called free market reeks of corruption
If the game is rigged is is still capitalism
The pen is mightier than the sword
But we lost them both so long ago
They own the discourse thats how they blind us
If money talks that leaves us voiceless
This is shelter from tax, this is Goldman Sachs
Bank of America, this is super P.A.C.s
The climate change debate, congressional lobbies
