Perverted Patriotism

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Protection of their sick obsession is what they want from us Protection by means of bloody wars became their greatest lust Tripling their profits as we march right into war Led are soon dead soldiers never knowing what's in store They're looking down upon us sheep while we bow down to them We die defending the country that's fucked us once again They'll see us on the battlefield, they'll watch us in our homes We realize that they're watching, but our apathy has grown They champion the living, they'll march to our grave They'll miss our blind devotion and the taxes that we gave This isn't fucking patriotism, it's marketing and selling war While these country's fucking morons only yearn for more and more Can't we see this sickness is a goddamn government game? [Verse 2] Vietnam and Desert Storm were both the fucking same The conditioning propaganda is their most effective tool They control these sightless masses who believe the people rule This perverted patriotism is really fucking sick The world's population sacrificed for making wallets thick [Verse 3] They have the masses brainwashed, "we're so lucky to be free" They won't remove the blindfold, fearing someday we may see For if people see the truth, they might stand up and fight The rich avoid at all costs the danger of this sight So kick back and fulfill their needs and thank their watchful eye We'll finally have our freedom underneath them when we die We sing about our freedom while our lives are sold and bought We sit and count our blessings while our fallen "heroes" rot So listen to your leaders and pray that Jesus saves Cause it seems that all they do, they do for fucking graves
