lyrics

Apathy and luxury
Are walking hand in hand
Dummies on my new T.V.
But me no comprehend

Did you hear the latest story
No one is breathing there
Just as they are clearing bodies
I'm coming up for air

Foreign wars for oil whores
Huge contract overruns
Elections fixed by sleazy pricks
Thank God the good guys won

Did you hear the general order
The fighting wasn't fair
They held my head beneath the water
I'm coming up for air

Creeps in bed are giving head
To dirty money man
Sheets are stained bloody remains
They rammed it up my can

Did you read the legislation
It's buried deep somewhere
They want to tax our suffocation
I'm coming up for air
