Macro / Micro - ¡MAYDAY!

Look today, each smile, brothers call the beast

At least you’ll be witnessing;

please remember what you see

So it’s passed and

Tell your king, 'cause this shit won’t last

And tell some fossil fuel for this gas and

Mention how we wage war on a ghost

City to city;

country to country;

coast to coast

It ain’t a joke;

it ain’t your favorite TV show

It’s -- global powers gettin' global with force bro so

Before you rejoice and say we gave a people a voice

Notice the next in line they have to make a choice between

Playin' ball or playin' war 'til someone falls

Buddy tactics or nuclear reactions ya’ll

Go ahead imagine don’t even begin to fathom

Until you’re assigned your own personal phantom

Following the facts diluted within the news

So many different channels;

so many avenues to choose from

I’m keeping my eyes open for Halliburtons, Rockafellers, the, just about

anything corporate

'Cause the reason my dogs are sweatin' their asses off is the cost of war

$ 400 billion for more Mickey D’s, Taco B’s, Auntie M’s and friends

Columbine study halls are playing pretend

I ain’t trying to defend Orwellian lifestyles

Nor I’m trying to protect this right to live in denial

Or rock the latest styles -- gas masks and chemical suits

Buck knife, bottled water, and hiking boots

My brother G.I.

Joe said he was 5−0

Protectin' economics is viable, he said

Before you rejoice and say we gave the people a voice

Notice the next in line they have to make a choice between

Designer jeans and special IDs;

broken dreams of pirate radio streams, see

It all occurs in a blur, the pop stars tell special interests they’ve got an

interest in yours, and you’re fucked

Time will remain sane, knowing no-one is safe

Living my own, until I’m erased or replaced

Before you rejoice and say we gave the people a voice

Notice the next in line they have to make a choice between

Privatization or foreign occupation

Globalization or embargos of medication

We’re facing our own greed, indeed;

these the last

Fifty years left before my last breath

Alas, years while the days go past

Have a laugh 'cause soon it’s all dust to dust and ash to ash
