Behind Their Walls
____________(Song Lyrics)____________
Oh, I didn’t want to
But I had to
I had to walk the block,
But they’ve come to turn me away
They patented life forms
They took my radio
And now they’ve got me hidden
‘Cause they’re locked behind their walls
But, all these metaphor bells
They’re all janglin’ now
Yeah, they’re rollin’ around inside everyone’s head
So can we go on like this
On like enemies
Holding the greed up and showering it with gold
Oh, and we’ve got guns
And we’ve got war machines
Yeah, we’re spending our money on everything that repels
And what they buy
They wouldn’t blink to sell
Yeah, they’re out there and they’re gambling with our lives
Oh…
Instrumental
Oh, and we’ve got eyes
On our society
But like a grape up high it’s hanging from the vine
As our great republic
Moves toward kleptocracy
Where the oligarchs are free to do as they please
Oh, I didn’t want to
But I had to
I had to walk the block,
But they’ve come to turn me away
I had to walk the block,
But they’ve come to turn me away
I had to walk the block,
But they’ve come to take me away
