A Time To Stand

Dead Hypocrite's Society
So here we go again so full of ideals So bright and shiny but destined to feel Like a serious threat to our convenience Swallowing twice leaves you with indifference Here I stand again, leather sneakers on my feet And four more pairs that I don't actually need While elsewhere small Children own no shoes at all We may ask ourselves who's gonna Tell those kids if we don't do Whose blood is in their chocolate And whose sweat is in their shoes And if few can make their voice heard Words from deep inside their heart We may not instantly change the world But at least this would be a start IN SPITE OF ALL THESE CORPORATE ORDERS I chose to ignore I DON'T LEAVE my dough with doctors without borders But at the record store And if everyone's so special SongtexteTHEN WHY DOES NO ONE USE THEIR BRAINS? And if this song is satire Then why the fuck does nothing change? As long as we pull our solicitous faces And keep away from consequences You're all damn welcome to join The dead hypocrites' society Here, let me take your coat and hat But don't forget To ask ourselves, however Who's gonna tell the kids That you cannot be proud of where you're from Only of what you did If we took care of one another And had our selfishness replaced We may not change the world But it would be a much nicer place Aus Songtexte Mania
