Thanks to Admiral Bob for the bluesy backing track.

the words:
It’s so much easier to react
than it is to think
That’s the kind of standard
that’s brought us to this brink

Wouldn’t you rather take the time
to learn what’s going on
Find the truth with an open mind
and a weather-eye for the con

You’re probably being lied to
Your truth may be counterfeit
Pretty good chance in this world
that functions on hi-grade bullshit

It isn’t always that simple
but yes there’s an us versus them
The people who want real progress
and the people who’s progress makes you a victim

Remember to them you are naught but consumers
and they have no remorse as they bilk ‘em
They’ll keep us contented, but fearful, confused
Ya gotta fence the cows to milk ‘em

Superman ain’t coming to save us
Nor is God or Wonder Woman
It’s up to us to save ourselves
It needn’t be so superhuman

Let love and logic be the way
Don’t let them use your fears
Not that you’re wrong to have them
Just don’t always trust your ears

Engage your brain, let’s keep things sane
Let your humanity be bold
Reject the bile that domiciles
in a penthouse plated gold
