lyrics

It's not the deficit it’s the disparity
That’s gotten us where we are today
And a placebo they call democracy
That keeps us all in line
We’ve got a choice between the ineffectual
And the truly fucking evil

The system works...
Just not for us
The system works...
Just not for us

Turns out you can change reality if
People are dumb enough to believe it
Cut education funding across the board and watch your
Poll numbers soar
The only thing forbidden
Is telling the fucking truth

The system works...
Just not for us
The system works...
Just not for us

I always wanted to be part of something
A little bigger than myself
I just didn’t think it was gonna be
Betsy Devos’ tenth fucking yacht

The system works...
If you’re a hedge fund manager
The system works...
If you’re a safe-seat senator
The system works...
If you went to Georgetown Prep
But not for us

These aren’t bugs
These are fucking features

Eat the rich
Eat the rich
Eat the rich
Eat the rich:
The other white meat

about

Total Massacre Los Angeles, California

“Total Massacre have a directness and simplicity that is kind of a lost art these days; it was a
hallmark of the punk scene back in the 1980’s and is what gave the music of that era the
immediacy that inspired young people to engage in acts of resistance to fascism. We need more
of that.”
– Chris Hannah, Propagandhi.
