the pacifistic preachers that are rotting on the shelves
only break out of their boxes when they know their shit will sell
and propaganda mongers sermonize impending war
always falsifying evidence to boost our tallied score
we're living in a world turned upside down (whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
they're seeking a messiah - yeah, we're fending for ourselves
they're spewing shit from ancient lips that crumble on the words
fully knowing that there is no hell in which they all should burn
robed and righteous singing lies to yearning, dying sheep
if we follow every fucking rule we'll reach "eternal peace"
we're living in a world turned upside down (whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
they blindly follow orders - yeah, you know we won't back down
the propaganda mongers moralize the right to choose
but the only right presented to us is our right to lose
every day we spend alive we lose our freedoms and our time
but if it's just a part of life it can't be deemed a fucking crime
they do not care about the world, the state, the kids, the scene
yeah, wealth corrupts and all they see is filthy gold and green!
we're ambushed by the media, told what to do and wear
never given time to stop and wonder if we really cared
corporations that strategically manipulate and scheme
keep the citizens in their control by chasing far-off dreams
we're living in a world turned upside down (x4)...
the propaganda mongers moralize the right to choose
but the only right presented to us is our right to lose
every day we spend alive we lose our freedoms and our time
but if it's just a part of life it can't be deemed a fucking crime
...right?!
