this country's gears can't slow down
at any cost to anyone they must sound
banker's fortunes and power cravings too
to this machine are bound
so this country's gears can't slow down
slow down!

they keep selling us a rotten deal, and im getting more than sick of it
because the suffering it brings, far outweighs it's minor benifits
the death of our health, the death of our dreams, the death of this world that we lease
the death of breathing life back into the long dead corpse we once called peace
