16.The Mean Measures of Today

There is money in chaos
There is money in religion
There is money in race
There is money in division

The protest songs of yesterday
Are now the top 40's of today
There is money in suffering
There is money in lies

HEY YO!
Fuck the world of today!
HEY YO!
Get it quick while you can!
HEY HEY!
Fuck the world of today
The trees don't mean shit but the cash they can portray

There is money in violence
There is money thanks to the media
There is money to be made
There is money thanks to the corporate contracts

All the protesters of yesterday
Are now the leaders of today
Traipse down, hand in hand
Selling out for their fellow man

There is money in the white house
There's money thanks to the corporate sponsors
There is money in the GOP
There is money for the free

HEY YO!
Fuck the world of today!
HEY YO!
Kristallnacht comin' our way!
HEY HEY!
Fuck the world of today!
Who needs free water when it's bottled and shipped away?
17.
HEY YO!
Fuck the world of today!
HEY YO!
It's how the media portrays!
HEY HEY!
Your life doesn't matter
Save the money that you generate and the choices that you make

There is money for you and me
Only when it's 'tween you and me
There is money for everyone
Hoarded thanks to the greed of the few

We are trapped in a cycle
Full of viciousness and despair
When - will there be a way out?
WHEN - even the final options are all refused to us?!

HEY YO!
Fuck the world of today!
HEY YO!
It's all shit anyway!
HEY HEY!
Ruined before we're born
HEY YO!
Ruined by those before us

HEY YO!
There's blood in the streets tonight
HEY YO!
Another innocent will die
HEY HEY!
Fuck the world of today
HEY YO!
When we all rationalize

HEY YO!
Fuck the world of today
HEY YO!
Fuck the fucking world!
HEY HEY!
When will it be enough?
When the last tree is felled
And the last droplet sucked
The last resource used
And the whole world abused

Only when money's all that we can breathe
Only then will we realize
WE'RE ALL FUCKED!
