Acolytes of War
 
Daybreak in Cambodia.
Good morning Vietnam.
They're dying in Somalia.
They're nervous in Tehran.
Can't you see?
The democratic process,
Has put puppets on the thrones,
Who kiss the feet of powerful,
Acolytes of war.
 
Monsanto in Columbia.
Dawn in Bogota.
Clearing out the Amazon.
Troops in Panama.
You don't see, really?
No negotiations.
Your sanctions won't get far.
These are hollow statements of,
Acolytes of war.
 
We've got incoming.
War without end, the acolytes of war,
God help us!
 
Vacation in Antarctica.
We'll put a man on Mars.
We're traveling to Orion.
Spreading poison through the stars.
 
These are our puppets.
Watch them dance.
They say what we want them to.
Can you believe a word they say?
Watch them dance.
Talk, talk, talk, talk.
They're just puppets.
 
The power of machines,
Is reaching for the stars.
They want to rule the heavens,
Acolytes of war.
 
War without...
 
American Idolatry
 
Celebrity dance with me.
Celebrity, celebrate with me,
American idolatry.
 
I'll catch your eye.
I'll make you cry.
I'll free your mind,
If you let me.
 
The television,
Spot I bought,
I'll give you,
Everything you want.
 
The night will come.
I'll be your God.
Lifted by all.
Mine for the taking.
 
Are you pretty?
Aren't they false?
I want to,
Introduce myself.
 
Don't make mistakes,
It's very late.
The highest stakes,
 Are in the balance.
 
Celebrity, celebrate with me,
American idolatry.
 
You don't believe,
It's just for show.
You think you know,
That's the problem.
 
It's nearly bliss,
A deep wet kiss,
It's only there,
 To distract you,
 
The night will come,
I'll be your God.
Lifted by all.
Mine for the taking.
 
I gotta brand,
It's mighty sad,
You look to me,
For the answers.
 
Don't make mistakes,
It's very late.
The highest stakes,
Are in the balance.
