Tyranny of the People Lyrics


Hail to the plebs

And the new world order they believe

It's all in their heads

With all the waste they conceive

The salt of the Earth

Entitled to poison the well

Deafened by the tune

Of silent liberty bells

Totalitarian

Unelectable

Unconstitutional

Unfair

Tyranny

By the people

For the people

Someone tell me

Who takes your civil rights away

Tyranny

By the people

For the people

At odds with the state

Don't fear

To tread on a snake

If you want government control

Go to Tiananmen

Anti-tank is a must

If you want tyranny

Ask Reverend Jones

He used to be one of us

Private citizens

Controlling our lives

And blaming the state

Suburban fascist auxiliaries

Sewing the salt of their hate

Grassroots

Hate speech

Plebarchy

Democracy in exile

Tyranny

By the people

For the people

Someone tell me

Who takes your civil rights away

Tyranny

By the people

For the people

At odds with the state

Don't fear

To tread on a snake

An emperor without any clothes

Is mentally ill

A wolf in sheepskin

Has already killed

A boy with blood on his hands

Has cried wolf before

Carry a stick

This means civil war

It's on

Someone tell me why

Our suspicions lie on absent MP's

And not our neighbours

The inconspicuous enemies

Crackpots in jackboots

With dagger and cloak

Pleading innocent

While they're slitting your throat

Anti-freedom

Anti-justice

Agendas that move on

Ivory tower soap box dictators

Tyranny

By the people

For the people

Someone tell me

Who takes your civil rights away

Tyranny

Of the people

Never trust a snake
