Bells Waltz In D

Gimme a break I’ll break it
Go get a life they’ll take it
At worst, at best they’ll shape it
And make you feel like you made it
But really you’re just taking
What they want you to take
Regurgitating on paper
And then they give you an A (and then say)
Hey look at you
You did it
You’re great
You gonna make a 
Good little citizen someday (but I say)
Realize what they teach is designed 
To keep everyone obedient 
And everyone within their reach 
I’m serious, go read
On Johann Fichte
What he preached
How he brought to Germany
Obedience
School that keeps
All the soldiers loyal
Not to retreat
Not to think for themselves
So as to die in a heap
To obey not matter what 
The authority 
Pledge allegiance
To the king
And all that he speaks

I’m operating on this nation
‘Til every person is not complacent
Fat, plump, not a grape
Shriveled up, not a raison
Not knowing is not a reason
Standing up is not treason
Knee knocking is what they’re seeking
Palm greasing will only please them
Give them an inch they’ll take a mile
Walk away, cracking a smile
Now that you’re bowing down
Knowing you’re wrapped around
Their middle finger blaster
It seems to me that it’s a race to the rafters
Who can jump first to hear that crack (crack) 
Casual observer claps for the actor
But tell me now is that what your after
Are you going to wait ‘til the next disaster?
And they only have to sack some staffer
Whose only real fault was to trust those bastards
I hope not
They won’t stop
So stack your
Soapbox 
On top of mine and climb
Don’t look down
Just take your time but don’t stop
I’ll give you a break
You sure deserve it
It’s time you made I know you’re worth it
Give us a chance
We’re looking forward 
Get behind us I know you heard me
