Bend a Knee
If this is ordinary, well simply what the fuck?
If you're just trying to scare me, well you've gone a bit too far.
You bow to please and hail to the king.
I'll never bend a knee.
Have you gone insane to justify your means?
I'll derail this train if it's necessary.
You bow to please and hail to the king.
I'll never bend a knee.
If their spines are weak, and convictions meek, we'll burn it down and drink to anarchy.

Super church
The wooden collection plate is lined with silver and gold. The new marble rectory makes me wonder where it goes. So why is Jesus trying to keep up with Mr. and Mrs. Jones? Tell me the amount on the check that buys me a step closer to God.
It's easier to reach a pen than to work in a soup kitchen, but I'm not paying for the pastors Mercedes because his clutch is slipping. So why is Jesus trying to keep up with Mr. and Mrs. Jones? Tell me the amount on the check that buys me a step closer to God.
I'm not saying that I don't believe in tithings and alms for the poor, but what I just don't get is what its all really used for.
So let's call it what it is it's just a concert to praise the God of all these converts as they open up their wallets for the super church of commerce. Yeah, a super church of commerce.

Misanthropy
Short-sighted doesn't even scrape the top. We use to stand for something long forgotten. Now we just sit back and watch. This mob mentality has overrun all the hard work civil rights begun. Now they burn it down for fun. My heart breaks as all the faith left in the human race disintegrates. I'll send you love and pray the gods don't kill us all for what we've done. So cozy on your sofa soap box. is it so passe to start a protest to serve your own self interests? Stand for something. Stand up. This moral case is open and shut. If you lie down it's all for not. My heart breaks as all the faith left in the human race disintegrates. I'll send you love and pray the gods don't kill us all for what we've done.
I'll make a pledge to keep the hope that we won't disparage and stop this waiting.
My heart breaks as all the faith left in the human race disintegrates. I'll send you love and pray the gods don't kill us all for what we've done.

Dinosaurs
We drill and kill everything living to suck the soup from their bones, and we're dying.
Blow up mountains, poison oceans, to keep the machines running clean, and we're dying.
Destroy the world and die like the dinosaurs.
Fuel for fire, fuel for fascists, a war a gallon at a time, and we're dying.
As all the creatures choke on plastic, how long do you think this could last? And we're dying.
Destroy the world and die like the dinosaurs.
Well extinction is eminent. Like we really give a shit. Well stop being idiots. Listen to the scientist. Or die like the dinosaurs.

I don't have the blues. I'm just a bit confused. How come everybody isn't yelling at the goons? Fascists go the cue. They heard it on the news. There's no shame at pointing blame at those different than you. If I want to I can scream.
We've read this before in 1984. You're the proletariat if you don't rule the world. It's what you're voting for. We elect corporate whores. You know they got the votes dropping their knees down on the floor. If I want to I can scream.
Back up man. I'm not violent, but I wont' stand to be a quiet dissident.
Don't keep your voices low. They put us in a mold, but we'll expand if we join hands and break out of the hold. Here's what I see through. I'll say what I need to. I'll yell if I want to and you know that it's the truth. If I want to I can scream.

Quit
Tell me that you need something more from me, you wont be happy that way.
If you're asking me who I need to be, you won't be happy that way.
You tell me quit, I'll say no fucking way. I guess theres nothing left to say.
You know those words aren't in my vocabulary.
So meet the new me, just the same OG, you won't be happy that way.
Try to take away my core then you'll see you won't be happy that way.
You tell me quit, I'll say no fucking way. I guess theres nothing left to say.
You know those words aren't in my vocabulary.
