Servile Masses

Why the fuck are you telling me what's for the best?
Sort yourself out, feather your nest and to hell with the rest
You're bang out of luck if you're struggling through a hard life
Don't own the ground, free to be exploited by the injustice that's rife

We servile masses walk blindly where we're lead,
So desperate to appease, till all self-respect has fled
We servile masses walk blindly where we're lead
To a lifetime on your knees, till the fire inside is dead

Fair is fair is so easy to say with a sword
“But let's not dwell on the past it was so long ago” say the ancient overlords
You're quick or you're dead is the message that they shout out
Others weakness is your opening, their weakness is your opening, so strike hard without doubt

We servile masses walk blindly where we're lead,
So desperate to appease, till all self-respect has fled
We servile masses walk blindly where we're lead
To a lifetime on your knees, till the fire inside is dead

Right in my face telling me how the world works
“Be a good slave and bide your time, you'll get your perks”
Why don't you rest your mouth? Because I've heard all I need to hear
Enough shit about monsters under the bed and how I should live my life in fear

We servile masses walk blindly where we're lead,
So desperate to appease, till all self-respect has fled
We servile masses walk blindly where we're lead
To a lifetime on your knees, till the fire inside is dead
