lyrics

in the service of state
and the general will
they'll smash all your windows
and send you the bill
there's an underage girl in the senator's lap
the religious fervor of the audience clap

cry havok
and turn tail and run
do not believe the words of the chosen one

down in Santa Barbara
the benches are turned
to make the homeless
more easily spurned
no need to be sorry
no need to be kind
to the empty stomachs
that you've left behind

cry havok
and turn tail and run
do not believe the words of the chosen one

go ahead and cut off
the pensioner's toes
this government is bankrupt
and so are its foes
the road to the capitol
is covered in gore
hello to starvation
goodbye to uproar

cry havok
and turn tail and run
do not believe the words of the chosen one
