Single-file line to say the pledge allegiance
For illusionary freedom
A gold star for your achievements keep you blind
They'll sell you on American dreams
But you have to be asleep
If you wanna believe it's not a lie
It's your fault you're so depressed
Up your meds and do your best
Suck it up and hold your breath
Work 'til you're dead
Punch the clock, cash the check
Ooh
Keep your head down and follow the rules
Get a job and stay the fuck in school
If that's all we gotta do
Then come and talk the talk
And I'll let you take a walk in bloody shoes
If we're all just canon fodder
Why the fuck we drinkin' water?
Take your Adderall with coffee
Just to spike our cortisol
We're overstimulated, underpaid, and not appreciated
Guess I really fuckin' made it
God bless the USA
Thoughts and prayers won't save us here
So save your tears
Ooh
Keep your head down and follow the rules
Get a job and stay the fuck in school
If that's all we gotta do
Then come and talk the talk
And I'll let you take a walk in bloody shoes
We did what you told us to do
We took all the tests
And followed all the rules
Raise your hand, shut your mouth
Be a man, quiet down
There's no sun underground
And you can't take your money with you
Ooh
Keep your head down and follow the rules
Get a job and stay the fuck in school
If that's all we gotta do
Then come and talk the talk
And I'll let you take a walk in bloody shoes
Ooh
Keep your head down and follow the rules
Get a job and stay the fuck in school
If that's all we gotta do
Then come and talk the talk
And I'll let you take a walk in bloody shoes
