Re-Gaining Unconsciousness
First, they put away the dealers
Keep our kids safe and off the street
Then they put away the prostitutes
Keep married men cloistered at home
Then they shooed away the bums
Then they beat and bashed the queers
Turned away asylum-seekers
Fed us suspicions and fears
We didn't raise our voice
We didn't make a fuss
It's funny, there was no one left to notice
When they came for us
Looks like witches are in season
You better fly your flag and be aware
Of anyone who might fit the description
Diversity is now our biggest fear
Now with our conversations tapped
And our differences exposed
Now ya supposed to love your neighbor
With our minds and curtains closed?
We used to worry 'bout big brother
Now we got a big father and an even bigot mother
And you still believe
This aristocracy gives a fuck about you
They put the mock in democracy
And you swallowed every hook
The sad truth is
You would rather follow the school into the net
'Cause swimming alone at sea
Is not the kind of freedom you actually want
So go back to your crib and suck on a tit
Bask in the warmth of your diaper
You're sitting in shit and piss
While sucking on a giant pacifier
A country of adult infants
A legion of mental midgets
A country of adult infants
A country of adult infants
All re-gaining their unconsciousness
Keep our kids safe and off the street
Then they put away the prostitutes
Keep married men cloistered at home
Then they shooed away the bums
Then they beat and bashed the queers
Turned away asylum-seekers
Fed us suspicions and fears
We didn't raise our voice
We didn't make a fuss
It's funny, there was no one left to notice
When they came for us
Looks like witches are in season
You better fly your flag and be aware
Of anyone who might fit the description
Diversity is now our biggest fear
Now with our conversations tapped
And our differences exposed
Now ya supposed to love your neighbor
With our minds and curtains closed?
We used to worry 'bout big brother
Now we got a big father and an even bigot mother
And you still believe
This aristocracy gives a fuck about you
They put the mock in democracy
And you swallowed every hook
The sad truth is
You would rather follow the school into the net
'Cause swimming alone at sea
Is not the kind of freedom you actually want
So go back to your crib and suck on a tit
Bask in the warmth of your diaper
You're sitting in shit and piss
While sucking on a giant pacifier
A country of adult infants
A legion of mental midgets
A country of adult infants
A country of adult infants
All re-gaining their unconsciousness
