lyrics

God bless America, land of the deceived,
where government aims to control its people
and exploit our complacency.
The present portends a dystopian future.
Beware the signs of tyranny.
We’re sold the illusion of choice
through campaign promises and attractive slogans,
flower-scented soap with which to brainwash the public.
The White House is a moated castle,
and the Capitol is a domed den of wolves appointed by hopeful sheep.
We must reject attempts to divide us, distract us, suppress us, oppress us.
In one defiant voice, let us unite.
Democracy is in danger. Our freedom is in jeopardy.
Fear mongers deny the existence of facts, try to rewrite history,
and work to blindfold the country’s eyes with a patriotic flag.
The media force-feeds us propaganda.
Agencies monitor our electronics,
and surveillance drones could soon outnumber bald eagles in flight.
Protest injustice. Question the unquestioned.
Do not forget: Two plus two equals four.
