lyrics

O.N.O. (Old New Order)

I want you to think about what I sing...Am I dressed in tin foil?
The powers that be, what they want you to see...Just another lie for a profit.
And let’s see who controls all the money...Now we’re all living for paper.

Behind the lies, What will you find, Control the mind, Then all our lives.

Let me be is what I need...I don’t need your fear porn.
If there is scarcity, then we’re not free...It can be so much better.

These darker times, they will unwind...They can’t wage wars forever.
If profits before people are the corporate steeple...Now isn’t that the root of all evil?
I don’t assume to have all the truths...But we all need to question.
Just look all around you if you are confounded...Is this the world you wanted?

Behind the lies, What will you find, Control the mind, Then all our lives.

Let me be is what I need...I don’t need your fear porn.
If there is scarcity, then we’re not free...It can be so much better.

Now the poor get poorer, and the rich get more.
Am I left just to bitch here?
In all this tragedy, got to stand up to see.
What could be our world?

On the screen of your TV...Is the fascist banter.
Messaging that’s so obscene...Controlled by just a handful.
Their loose change can’t rearrange...A false new world order.
The fascist shits, those hypocrites...They want total control now.
But what we need is to be free...Stand in your own power.
Tomorrow only knows what we all chose...Will we make life any better?
