Free your Feet, Free your Mind

Free the Feet, Free the Mind
.
Preaching freedom,
why can't you see what I believe...
and take off the chains of a dying society
- The weight you bear is sacrificial despair,
the status quo,
implicit unwritten rules,
regulated behavior and thought control,
even fucking etiquette,
holy hell, which fork do I use now
- shackled, hamstrung, pinioned, and caged,
do you baaa on command in a choir of the damned,
ah, but the bars are all padded, the manacles mink lined,
you've traded your freedom for a big TV screen
- Mortgage and rent, leases and loans,
taxes and fees just so we can breathe
- Enough is enough,
we need to get off this runaway train,
I'd sooner eat dog food and live with fleas
than wear society's collar and pedigree
- Well, I think you're beginning to see
the world is a straightjacket strangling our minds,
the first step is to walk through a meadow sans shoes and socks
the very first step is to set your spirit free
- Shoe don't protect you,
they prevent you from being part of the world,
rubber soles are good insulators you know
-Free your feet, free your mind, free the world's grind
.
The next step, of course, is to burn it  all down
