Sweatshop Union - Us Lyrics lyrics

rate me

The whole world’s a sweatshop, a fascist regime/

With billions of parts, working as a massive machine/

The goal, keep the masses, passive between/

Cash, limozines and other fabulous things/

But, we gotta wake up and notice it’s a load of shit/

It’s all about ownership of your soul and who's controllin’ it/

Not bout the gold you get, not bout the clothes you’re in/

It’s not about oil, but we’re killing each other over it/

Like a Doberman, chomping on a cat/

It’s a new world order, and they’re bombin on Iraq/

And it’s so fucking heartless, the whole country’s starving/

And yet, they’ve been targeted as a threat regardless/

This all started in days prior to ours/

They arrived from the stars, and survived in the dark/

Now it’s time for the hearts of men/

To march against it/

And realize that the cycle starts and ends with…

Chorus:

Us, we’re the ones that pay for the bombs/

Us, we built the planes that they’re on/

Us, It’s insane all of the ways they conned us/

But we can change it today, it’s just all on/

Us, we’re the ones that pay for the bombs/

Us, we built the planes that they’re on/

Us, It’s insane all the ways we’ve been conned/

Into killing millions of innocent people, but it’s all on…

Us.

Trust me friends, it could never just be us, or just be them/

Sometimes I think it just depends, it’s just pretend/

You can never trust a trend/

Don’t rub your eyes, I’d rather you'd adjust the lens, look up to them?

Tell me, who the fuck are they?

When did they ever give a damn about what you say?

For what you stand, that’s why you gotta trust me man/

Trust a Bush? That’s like saying trust Sadam/

But for real, you gotta love the fam/

Ask his dad the ex-prez how many drugs he ran/

So trust us, this shits about to flood the land/

Cause government hands can no longer plug the dam/

So fuck the news, fuck the critics, fuck their views/

And if you sit and let it happen then fuck you too/

It’s up to you, I can’t tell you what to do/

But touch the truth, and don’t just judge the few/

But judge…

Chorus x2
