D7 (Chords are fingerpicked)
Circle around the park
Emadd9
Joining hands in silence
D7 Bmadd13- G/B
Watch the evil black the sky
D7
The storm has ripped the shelter
Emadd9
Of illusion from our brow
B5 G#5 Gmaj7(II)
This power is no mystery to us now.
Dmaj7 D Dsus2
Leave your spirit genocide
Gmaj7 G Gmaj7
The cancer you won't remove
Dmaj7 D Gmaj7
We cast our funeral rose inside
G Gmaj7
And bury the need to prove

Our mutilation is to gain from the system

Emadd9 (etc )
Ooh, turn your head away
From the screen, oh people
It will tell you nothing more
Don't suck the milk of flaccid Bill K.
Public's empty promise
To the people that the public can ignore
This way of life is so devised
To snuff out the mind that moves
Moving with grace the men despise
And women have learned to lose
Throw off your shame or be
a slave to the system
I see you take another drag
One more lost soul to raise your flag
The sky is a landfill
I see you take another drag
Let's see you take another drag
G(II)

You like to dance to the rolling
F#
Head of the adulteress
A5 E5 D5
You sing in praise of suicide
G(II)
We know you're useless
F# A5 E5 D5
Like cops at the scene of the crime
G(II)
With your steroids and your feedbag
Bb5
And your stable and your trainer
B(b9) G#5 G(II)
I got a mail bomb for you Mister Strong Arm.
D7
Throw out the stones from all the cemetery homes
Bmadd13- G/B etc.
For the violence of a nation gone by
Or the politics of weakness
And the garbage dump of souls
That will now black the sky
Their yellow haze and crowds of eyes
Will plug up the mind that moves
Moving with grace the men despise
And women have learned to lose
We'll share our bodies
In disdain for the system
Oh, I see you take another drag
One nation bends to kiss the hag
The sky is a landfill
I see you take another drag
I see you take another drag
I have no fear of this machine!
