It’s a crucial time
For all Mankind
Some believe in endless war
In a fixed ugly mind
A “Yee-ha!” mentality
In place of a plan
Led by a cipher
In place of a man
The folly is awesome
And tragic too
The analogy of lemmings
Is all too true
It suits the right
To play the raving hero
As the dead keep mounting
Row on row
An uglier sight
We will rarely see
Than these political wars
Of hypocrisy
Building careers
On the glorious dead
With speeches of lies
All so badly led
Bush and Cheney
Creatures of control
It’s not freedom they want
But a grip on your soul
The concept of democracy
They wish to destroy
A conservative dictat
They will employ
Fixing the game
So they always win
Using lies as fact
With a sleazy spin
Feeding their sponsors
At YOUR expense
Their ugly crimes
Are truly immense
Big Oil and Construction
Pharma and the rest
Selling your rights
As THEY invest
In the next million dollars
That BUYS policy, please believe
As they fleece you clean
And seek to deceive
All into thinking
They have your interests at heart
While stripping your rights
Straight from the start
They will bring no security
No freedom from fear
They will only rob you
Of all you hold dear
Right now they're all smiles
So false and facile
Tomorrow we'll see
More hidden guile
From those who stand in the shadows
Behind the Bozo Bush
Those who pull the strings
That stick from his tush
Cjheney and the rest
With their hearts of ice
Manipulate your emotions
Like crooked dice
Look at the true intentions
Of these crooked few
Don’t be fooled by their words
Look at what they DO
They will surely bring you
To the gates of hell
To an isolated America
Forever consigned to dwell
In a future of fear
With shadows all around
Fuelled by the hawks
Who prepared the ground
The more FEAR they create
The more they can win
THIS is how they see it
THIS is what they spin
If they can keep you
Fearing your every step
Then they’ll control you
In their endless grip
For them that is positive
A card they can play
To forward agendas
Better kept locked away
Now is their hour
And they know it well
So they stoke your fear
From the mouth of hell
Don’t think they wish for
The terrorists’ defeat
That’s not the plan
That makes their hearts beat
It’s all too convenient
To KEEP you in fear
So you do what they say
THIS they hold so dear!
Political power
To control your thought
To bend you to their will
While the “war” is fought
Now do you see
How crucial is this time?
Resisting endless “war”
That will destroy Mankind?
Now we must break free
It’s time to make a start
To remove these ugly parasites
Who so grip our heart
They don’t wish your freedom
They don’t wish you strong
They want you controlled
By deception that is so wrong
Don’t be misled by their illusions
Those ones that they spin
These sick souls are corrupting
And will stoop so low to win
NOW is the time
to TRULY become free
The time for true honour
And selfless bravery
It’s time to stand tall
And see through these ugly men
Asserting a TRUE moral strength
In AMERICA again
