the answer


the planet’s in a piss poor state
as cold as the ice age
history repeats itself
let’s turn the final page
wracked by man’s endeavors
to prove his very worth
progress toward his destiny
the end of life on earth

from primitives with stones and bones
to modern socialites
survival is a good excuse
to enjoy a bloody fight
war machine economies
provide the ways and means
prosperity comes easily
devising death machines

the president’s an asshole
like the heroes he portrays
the market for world leaders
has seen its better days
dictators dick the people
and tyrants terrorize
civil servants in conspiracy
to render our demise

socialism’s just an ism
democracy’s a joke
religion’s just a rationale
to send pagans up in smoke
sodom and gomorrah
knew what life’s about
the pope’s a fag in holy drag
it’s time that he came out

humanity is hopeless
and freedom don’t exist
so band together spartans
and raise a hard clenched fist
peace is just a theory
that we’ll set out to prove
all we need’s a few good men
to make this movement move

we’ll rob the ragheads riches
and arm the psychopaths
we’ll raze the cities and salt the fields
leave nothing in our paths
we’ll incite racial riots
burn buildings to the ground
we’ll sabotage everything
that makes the world go around

we’ll cripple communications
bring armies to their knees
overthrow the governments
destroy communities
we’ll detonate the warheads
aimed from shore to shore
create a holy holocaust
the ultimate world war

we’ll hijack shuttles into space
until the smoke subsides
return to hunt survivors
and shoot them all on sight
we’ll perform necrophilia
and dance in the aftermath
then i’ll kill you and you kill me
then silence... peace at last
