lyrics

I've got the government mandated blues
the government mandated blues
I'm feeling what I'm supposed to be feeling
and everything they are telling me is just totally true

I'm Joseph Stalin for more time
don't hate me for my thought crimes
George Orwell is rolling in his grave
there's no one left for Christ to save

I've got the manufactured narrative blues
the manufactured narrative blues
I'm hearing what I'm supposed to be hearing
and as long as I do there is nothing to fear

Let's play American Roulette
You owe a never ending debt
to a future that you flushed away
you hope you die before you pay
(and you will)
