WASTELAND OF THE FREE

Living in the wasteland of the free...

 

We got preachers dealing in politics and diamond mines

 

and their speech is growing increasingly unkind

 

They say they are Christ's disciples

 

but they don't look like Jesus to me

 

and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

 

We got politicians running races on corporate cash

 

Now don't tell me they don't turn around and kiss them peoples' ass

 

You may call me old-fashioned

 

but that don't fit my picture of a true democracy

 

and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

 

We got CEO's making two hundred times the workers' pay

 

but they'll fight like hell against raising the minimum wage

 

and If you don't like it, mister, they'll ship your job

 

to some third-world country 'cross the sea

 

and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

 

Living in the wasteland of the free

 

where the poor have now become the enemy

 

Let's blame our troubles on the weak ones

 

Sounds like some kind of Hitler remedy

 

Living in the wasteland of the free

 

We got little kids with guns fighting inner city wars

 

So what do we do, we put these little kids behind prison doors

 

and we call ourselves the advanced civilization

 

that sounds like crap to me

 

and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

 

We got high-school kids running 'round in Calvin Klein and Guess

 

who cannot pass a sixth-grade written test

 

but if you ask them, they can tell you

 

the name of every crotch on MTV

 

and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

 

We kill for oil, then we throw a party when we win

 

Some guy refuses to fight, and we call THAT the sin

 

but he's standing up for what he believes in

 

and that seems pretty damned American to me

 

and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

 

Living in the wasteland of the free

 

where the poor have now become the enemy

 

Let's blame our troubles on the weak ones

 

Sounds like some kind of Hitler remedy

 

Living in the wasteland of the free

 

While we sit gloating in our greatness

 

justice is sinking to the bottom of the sea

 

Living in the wasteland of the free

 

Living in the wasteland of the free

 

Living in the wasteland of the free
