Lyrics

A nation polarized primed for a civil war where is this going now? Black or white no grey no reasonable people left any more. Economic calamity is knockin at your door but you don't answer it. Sooner or later he'll be breakin down the door and it is you that he has come to get Institutional disincentive stimulates an inefficient allocation While your confidence in cancer causing governmental intervention manifests as regulation. While the host dies of parasites never knowing what the hell is going on. A country in demise, empire paralyzed, dying should not be prolonged. Basket cases run the town, run the news and run us down. There's a stew of poison brewing without knowing you are lining up to wine and dine. Ya take a sniff ya take a whiff ya look around you thinking something isn't smelling right. Determined to be learnin what's burnin behind the curtain certain it's a crock of shit. Step out of line to investigate and implicate the shadows who are serving it. Basket cases run the town, run the news and run us down.
