Quotable Lyrics:
They’ve been programming us since before I Hickory Dickory
Vile vulgar and visciously
Feeding until you visit me
They love warfare
And wherever the violence go
We say send more there
Then the money and power grows
Until they don’t care
Not just dollars
But death of ours
Then the money and power grows until they don’t care
