Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Fuck these motherfuckers at the top
Dog eating dog motherfuckers gotta stop
Fuck these demagogues of greed
Got us all on our knees, now the whole thing diseased and corrupt
Rotten to the core (Core)
Still they want more (More)
Rich gettin' rich beyond belief, while the poor watch the score board
Feel like we in the final quarter (Quarter)
Warfare over air and slaughter over water
[Verse 2]
Sons and daughters of the dispossessed ponder trauma
Wondering why they feel so depressed
The colony will not tolerate autonomy of thought, and erase all the history that you fought to restore
Greed, that's the number one serial killer (Killer)
Omni Godzilla on a rampage
Charge it to the company account then
Mansplain the logic of your game when the truth comes out, I said
[Chorus]
Dirty, dirty, dirty old men
Fucking up the world with this bullshit again
Just when you think it couldn't much worse, they come back and let you know that it can of course, I said
Dirty, dirty, dirty old men
Fucking up the world with this bullshit again
Just when you think it couldn't much worse, they come-
[Verse 3]
I got no rhyme, this land is stolen
I got no reason, this world is broken
I'm looking in the mirror but I'm always out of focus
I try to pay mind but my thoughts are just tokens
My eyes are closed but I cannot sleep
Look like I'm smiling but I'm grinding my teeth
I'm never lost but I can't be found
My throat is screaming hoarse but I can't make a- sshh
[Verse 4]
No mercy, no remorse just a courtesy call
Before a show of unmitigated force
Now you're bound, gagged and twisted, remember
The beast won't ever lie if you ask it no questions
[Bridge]
The prodigal son has returned
All of the money is burned
All of the knowledge has been forgotten and all the lessons unlearned
[Chorus]
Dirty, dirty, dirty old men
Fucking up the world with this bullshit again
Just when you think it couldn't much worse, they come back and let you know that it can of course, I said
Dirty, dirty, dirty old men
Fucking up the world with this bullshit again
Just when you think it couldn't much worse, they come back and let you know that-
[Verse 5]
This revolution wont be televised
Tell me why these fellas keep on tellin' lies?
Fat fascists that ain't never satisfied
Probably 'cause they lack a spine
Back against the wall 'n so we had to fight
Labelled "savage" but in actuality, we had it right
Imagine life where we're all eatin', false teachings all cease as the colonies fall to pieces
Taught that we belong at the bottom, that's far from the truth
The first scientists, we were thinking faster than you
They out here joking but I'm hardly amused
So much hate the situation's gettin' hard to diffuse
And so I grab the pen and target the youth, to try 'n tell 'em the truth
Don't wanna see 'em in a cell or a tomb
I move like I don't got a second to lose, walkin' in victory
Presently changing my future due to my history
I refused to be a statistic
I'm just being realistic
I'm just freeing the mind, they tryna keep it imprisoned
[Chorus]
Dirty, dirty, dirty old men
Fucking up the world with this bullshit again
Just when you think it couldn't much worse, they come back and let you know that it can of course
Dirty, dirty, dirty old men
Fucking up the world with this bullshit again
Just when you think it couldn't much worse, they come back and let you know that it can of course, I said
