There's a bullet in my head And I dunno how it got there Not even a second Before it goes out the back of my skull There's a dying little child Somewhere in the world Being eaten of starvation What's this world coming to?
When we don't care about dying children We don't care about our best friends We only care about what we're sellin We only care about dividends When you don't care about true emotions And you'd rather pledge to a piece of cloth It only goes to prove my point That America has lost
I hate you and your safety What happened to fun? What happened to scaring random strangers? What happened to being dumb? Now there's rules for everything You can't even fight in school Cuz everyone's afraid of stupid lawsuits And losing money to corporate tools
But we don't care about dying children We don't care about our best friends We only care about what we're sellin We only care about dividends When you don't care about true emotions And you'd rather pledge to a piece of cloth It only goes to prove my point That America has lost
Better not look away Better do what they say
Well I say
I say -- what they think And -- what they say And -- what they want me to be I'll do what I want I'll do it when I want And i'll do it my own --**** way
Now you do truly feel alive?
