Stars & Stripes
(Benjamin Schmid)
Show, pomp and everywhere illusion
The sense of life found in the mall
Yet faith in everything but then
No faith at all
The big brother´s here
To take the world by the hand
And their troops are reaching everywhere
To save your desperate land
Land of individuality
Promoting mental uniform
They´re all down on their knees
To worship you
Just wanting you to tell them
What to do
And everywhere I look I´m seeing you
As if they couldn´t live on their own
The faceless men in white
They want to save morality
Can´t hide depravity
With fake-morality
Your hand´s called trend
Your eyes are everywhere
A cultural empire known as world
Abolishing what´s left of care
Bad conscience heals the FBI
But it´s all right so don´t ask why
You´ve got your way of live
But I want to keep mine
I don´t ever want to live
Where justice kills the innocent
And the culprits have a laugh
In god´s promised land
The global police-authority
Rectifies the world´s mistakes
High technology to stress their point of view
And everyone´s longing to be like you
