Have you been to the desert? |
|
Have you walked with the dead? |
|
There's a hundred thousand children being killed for their bread |
|
And the figures don't lie they speak of human disease |
|
But we do what we want and we think what we please |
|
Have you lived the experience? |
|
Have you witnessed the plague? |
|
People making babies sometimes just to escape |
|
In this land of competition the compassion is gone |
|
Yet we ignore the needy and we keep pushing on, we keep pushing on |
|
This is just a punk rock song |
|
Written for the people who can see something's wrong |
|
Like ants in a colony we do our share |
|
But there's so many other ****in' insects out there |
|
And this is just a punk rock song |
|
Have you visited the |
|
Quagmire? |
|
Have you swam in the shit? |
|
The party conventions and the real politic |
|
The faces always different, the rhetoric the same |
|
But we swallow it all, and we see nothing change, nothing has changed |
|
This is just a punk rock song |
|
Written for the people who can see something's wrong |
|
Like workers in a factory we do our share |
|
But there's so many other ****in' robots out there |
|
And this is just a punk rock song10 million dollars on a losing campaign20 million starving and writhing in pain |
|
Big strong people unwilling to give |
|
Small in vision and perspective |
|
One in five kids below the poverty line |
|
One population runnin' out of time, runnin' out of time |
|
