God Damn

Oh!

Hey - can't you see we're tripping on the wire Waltzing through the candy land of our desires Press the magic button and behold the world you crave But where's the fun in freedom when it renders you a slave?

Pledge allegiance, no flag God nation, goddamned The devil dances with the scorned And how the fire keeps us warm

Hey - it goes beyond big brother in the sky Beyond the threat of martial law, no Horus eye No one came to cuff you, they just handed you the chains Blind follow the blind and now the one-eyed man is king

Pledge allegiance, no flag God nation, goddamned The devil dances with the scorned And how the fire keeps us warm Tunnel vision, no man Damn nation, god damn Can't see the forest for the trees Can't heal the wound before we bleed

No form of payment, no pot of gold Will satisfy the debt of what he's owed Spilling from the houses in a trance, the children lined up on the road Cursing at the piper as he lured your kids away and led them to the river For what was their final day No need for convincing on his pipe, he played a song to fool them all Fooled them all

Pledge allegiance, no flag God nation, goddamned The devil dances with the scorned And how the fire keeps us (keeps us, keeps us) Tunnel vision, no man Damn nation, god damn Can't see the forest for the trees Can't heal the wound before we bleed
