Omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient, big brethren
Central planners social engineers nanny staters cradle to gravers
Utopian ideologues and ivory towers left wing progs
Ruling class system caste bloody blue aristocrats

Socialize collective lies a proletariat paradise
Pyramids and Ponzi schemes and bloated bureaucracies
Special interest bedding big business corporate crony fat cat capitalist
Public setor union labor campaign coffers and party favors


Nationalize industry seize the means of productivity
The abolition of propriety it's a classless society
Divide and conquer rich versus poorer creed
And color race and gender
Covet thy neighbor oh so bourgeoisie have
And have nots Lenin and Marx

[In the near future... The Prophet awakens]


I try to help but things get out of hand
For some reason
I try to tell the truth but they react like I have
Spoken treason
I reach to lift the veil that shows the profit
Eating up our nation
The siren's voice is strong like medicine
It darkens our relations

You think that I don't care
I don't think that I could care more than I do
You faith has left you there
I don't think that I could care more...

The Owner fans the flames easily
Keeping our attention
And while he diverts our eyes his wagon passes by
Without a mention
I try to lift the veil to show the beast
Feeding on my nation
But now we've chosen sides and faith won't let you have
That conversation

You say that I don't care
I don't think that I could care more than I do
You faith has left you there
I don't think that I could care more

Big crowd was gathering downtown to scream even louder
And there was no limit to the puffed up, the proud, and the scared
Aimlessly ignorant masses held on to the phrases
Shaking hands with the devil who put the thought there

Who's gonna save us now
Yeah, who's comin' now

Twisting and turning the truth jumbled up like kaleidoscope
Feasting on pig in the middle of of a big shiny plate
Chanting got louder the devil held the noose and the black rope
They opened up big mouths to laugh and got swallowed by hate

So who's comin' now
Who's gonna save us now
Yeah, who's comin' now

Big money big man with big friends is making a big play now
Selling immediate gratification for free somehow
Save us
Who's drawing sides with our nation
Who's stirring up our frustration
Who understand how little it takes
To play us and take us again

Save us now, who's gonna save us
Who's comin' now
Who's gonna take us, play us now..... ?

The drones fell in line with incredible numbers
And I felt defeat
'Cause the spell was too strong and they were in slumber
So I stared at their feet
