21st century lullaby

 


          Hush,useless eaters,dont say a word.
          Stop asking questions,get back in the herd.
          Be good little sheeple,and stay in your pen.
          Don`t make us bring out the wolf again.
          Drink up your fluoride,have all your jabs.
          Eat up this food thats been fucked with in labs.
          Medicate your kids if they can`t follow rules
          Side effects? they might take a rifle to school.
          But don`t you bother thinking,we`ll tell you your views.
          You`ll be sedated by soaps and scared by the news.
          You`ll toil on your treadmills,file your tax forms correctly,
          And pray that the horror doesn`t touch you directly.
          And protest is useless,don`t try and resist,
          Because just like, Santa,we`re making a list.
          We`re storing the data,your files are full.
          We`ll sort the wheat from the chaff when it comes to the cull.
          But so you feel free,put your x on this paper,
          And every four years you can elect your dictator.
          Laugh at the rumours of lies and conspiracy,
          And Humans being part of the one divinity.
          Don`t look within,happiness is out here,
          With interest free credit,pay nothing for a year.
          So hush there,cannon fodder,don`t you weep.
          Close your eyes and go back to sleep.
          Because your government loves you,
          And your masters are pleased,
          when you`re good little victims and stay on your knees.
          And when you awake ,and your freedom`s been crushed,
          Be good little slaves,and hush,hush.
