tell me who will arrest the political pollution

who's coming up with the eminent solution

who's gonna sell you something you can't use

who can broadcast fallacies and call it the news



who's gonna fight the almighty legislature

when a woman's not a woman but another incubator

when the choleric voice of millions place another urgent call

and your right to choose is taken leaving no choice at all



freedom is just a word

incendiary

justice a blank ideal

our novel paradigm

mirror of one way glass

somebody's watching

america flies first class



some people say i'm bitter and i really should get over it

an angry young man with nothing tangible to show for it

but oppression breeds obsession like another mean season

and to turn a blind eye would be personal treason



in the sky there's a tiding greeting each and every birth

about how the unenlightened have inherited the earth

and if aids doesn't get you you can bet you neighbor will

because his umbrage and obstruction give him the liberty to kill



when there's no more change to bring about

when there's nothing left to sing about

and when my heart is empty

and there's no more greed to tempt me



america files first class
