Ive had my fill Of every ill That the world Keeps trying ...to instill I've had my fill I've had...I've had...I've had I've had my fill Keep telling me lies Even though ... You realize That you no longer Even have to try and hide Them! Behind .......a thin disquise I think that means That the primed machines Are ready to go..... .....so.... They don't care if we know Which way the future leans I do believe That there are those Who do conceive Of just ... ..one more heave And that will take it Take it all the way All the way down To the ground ! Where others wait - With a rope To quickly quash...every hope And celebrate Once they have it bound And all tied down Watch and learn From those who spurn All the things that we hold dear As they tell us whats what Then turn a deaf ear And it's then as they twist and bend And rend the truth By attitudes and platitudes They separate us ...Into classes All the while They clinch their teeth To hide the smile Apprehension encouraged By descending deeper and deeper Into dissention Convoluted amplituded Learned from those With whom ... ...they colluded Those enemies of the free But still...you may be One of those who still denies What is RIGHT ... .....In front Of your eyes Just so you know When that sun has set Don't waste time waiting For the light of dawn If you bought the darkness Then thats the ... ...the future you will get I've had my fill....of every ill That the world keeps trying ... ....to instill !
