Propagandhi
Nation States
"Publicly subsidized! Privately profitable!"
The anthem of the upper-tier, puppeteer untouchable
Focus a moment, nod in approval
Bury our heads back in the bar-codes of these neo-colonials

Our former nemesis, the romance of the nation state
Now plays fundraiser for a new brand of power-concentrate
Try again, but now we're confused; what is "class war"?
Is this class war? Yes, this is class war

And I'm just a kid
I can't believe I gotta worry about this kind of shit

What a stupid world

And it's beautiful
No regard for principle

What a stupid world

Born, hired, disposed
Where that job lands, everybody knows
You can tell by the smile on the CEO
Environmental restraints are about to go

You can bet laws will be set
To ensure the benefit
Of unrestricted labour laws
Kept in place by displaced government death squads
They own us
They own us
Produce us
Consume us

They own us
They own us
Produce us
Consume us

Can you fucking believe?

What a stupid world

Fuck this bullshit display of class-loyalties
The media and "our" leaders wrap it all up in a flag, shit-rag, hooray
