You say you do it for your family But all you see is money You see in shades of blue And your prophets for hire Are starting to get greedy And the chemicals you use for warfare They weren’t made in a factory, made in a lab They grow organic in the land And the drug is death but it comes in a pretty package Those who distribute are the same ones who deal And the ones who deal are the ones who ingest And the ones who ingest end up a in prison Where experiments are done, degrading and dumb Until the free man becomes the farmer Planting death among the cornfields

Cornfields
You say you do it for your family But all you see is money You see in shades of blue And your prophets for hire Are starting to get greedy And the chemicals you use for warfare They weren’t made in a factory, made in a lab They grow organic in the land And the drug is death but it comes in a pretty package Those who distribute are the same ones who deal And the ones who deal are the ones who ingest And the ones who ingest end up a in prison Where experiments are done, degrading and dumb Until the free man becomes the farmer Planting death among the cornfields
