Carelessly passing your time with Rush snarling away
Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air
You better watch out
There may be blacks about
You've looked over Dubya, you have not seen
Things are not what they seem.
What do you get for pretending the danger's not real
Meek and obedient you follow your leader
Down well trodden corridors into the valley of steel
What a surprise!
A look of terminal shock in your eyes
Now things are really what they seem
No, this is no bad dream.
With Rush as your shepherd, you shall not want
He gives you his big lie
Through avarice, greed he leadeth you the silent waters
by
With big guns he releaseth your soul
He maketh you to hang on hooks in high places
He converteth you to lamb cutlets
For lo, he hath great power and great hunger
When cometh the day you lowly ones
Through quiet reflection and great dedication
See your master, the man of deception
Lo, you shall rise up
And then you'll make the bugger's eyes water.
Bleating and babbling you follow his lies, with a scream
Wave upon wave of demented avengers
March cheerfully out of obscurity follow his scheme.
Have you heard the news?
Your rights are dead!
You better stay home
And do as you're told
Get out of the way if you want to grow old.
