Good-bye Sandy Hook
“Through all of it, those who remained human did so through a simple act of will. That is all.”
Verse One:
Stories spilling out the box,
I see the words running,
A man is moving his lips,
But I don't see emotion coming,
It's a wonder when I flip the button,
Cause the dude just multiplied,
Same woman cried,
Same amount of people died,
Except it seems the end of the world,
Total armageddon,
Looks like hell,
And it ain't even seven!,
People gotta commute,
To keep the debt down,
While the Congress works hard,
To keep the stocks down,
The IRS is keeping numbers,
Cops are jailing brothers,
Politicians taking pictures,
With the crying mothers,
The pharmaceutical ads play,
They show a happy place,
Then its happy meals at Mickey D's,
What a disgrace,
All the messages are flipped,
Meant to cause a reaction,
They paint the world in chaos,
So they can get it clashin',
Titans of the industries,
Keep pushin' their plans,
So overwhelming,
To your unaware man.
Chorus:
When you can't sleep at night,
Can't even close your eyes,
Because of something you heard today,
Know this:
The world will live or die or be okay,
Because we say it will.
Verse Two:
Forget the second amendment,
Let's rip the constitution,
A crazy dude,
Just killed a bunch of students,
The president, he gave a speech,
He even cried,
It's almost like,
His own kids died,
Whats wrong with people?,
Why would someone do this?,
Let him take all the guns,
‘cause screw this,
I don’t want to see,
Little body bags,
I just got back from gap,
With my shopping bags,
I need to take my medication,
Plan my vacation,
With all this stuff,
I leave to the administration,
I mean the president is cool,
All the celebrities like him,
He's got a Nobel Prize,
How could anyone fight him?,
The other party's got some nerves,
I hope they learn their lesson,
Cause I sure ain't voting for 'em,
Next election,
I check the right box,
I listen to the talking heads,
I make up my own mind,
So why are people dead?
Chorus:
When you can't sleep at night
Can't even close your eyes
Because of something you heard today
Know this:
The world will live or die or be okay
Because we say it will.
Can't stop the people talking,
Can't stop the people waking up,
Can't stop them rising up,
Against the illusion,
You don't need to know why,
All you need to know is evil wants to die,
So if you want to live,
You'll be okay.
Verse Three:
1, 2,
It's time for some action,
3, 4,
Let's get them reactin',
Because I'm not a product of,
My environment,
My environment's,
A product of me,
It's time to see,
Let 'em kill people,
I'ma make people,
I'ma make good,
While they be evil,
And you know what?,
The one that works harder wins,
So you know what?,
I just keep clocking in,
Find me at the office,
I keep makin’ friends,
And when I'm outside,
The communicatin' never ends,
They want us to hate each other,
But we gotta love,
When they bring their tanks,
You gotta pull a dove,
Keep on producing,
Keep making art,
And when someone tells you stop,
Man, just start,
‘Cause you're not alone,
In fact, we're the majority,
And remember,
You're the only real authority.
Chorus:
Can't stop the people talking,
Can't stop the people waking up,
Can't stop them rising up,
Against the illusion,
You don't need to know why,
All you need to know is evil wants to die,
So if you want to live,
You'll be okay.
Good-bye, Sandy Hook.
