Liberty of thought starts with liberal education
Exposure to Enlightenment of past generations
If you wanna open fire on our freedom of expression
Far-right ideology’s the ultimate oppression
You seek the murder machine!
You speak the murder machine!
You preach the murder machine!
It’s a broken, ugly system and the system fuckin’ stinks
We teach kids to conform when they should be taught to think
They should be asking questions; they should want fuckin’ change
But to break the fuckin’ rules they gotta learn the fuckin’ game!
Kids: fight the murder machine!
Despise the murder machine!
Ignite the murder machine!
You want holy armies to wage your holy wars
The Morality Police will be kicking down our doors
Repressing rights of women and toying with their health
You claim to love the poor while you hoard all the wealth!
We’re trying to create a world, not tear it all apart
Let’s imitate the nations that govern with a heart!
Unless there’s civil rights for all, the Civil War has never ended
Until there’s civil rights for all, this civil war will be extended
