SCHWARTZENEGGAR LYRICS

"Rulers Of The Roost"

I was looking for a message from Rock 'n' Roll
And there's something I'd really like to know.
Do people care what's going on -
Or would they rather whisper nothings from another love song?
They simulate affection and they think it's great -
Don't want to face the fact we're living with hate,
Well they'd better wake up and think again
Because the gun speaks louder than the paper and the pen.

I've seen the writing on the wall
And what it says is straight:
You'd better shut your mouth
And give your arse a chance before it's too late.
'Cause the hand of authority is ready for us
Should we dare to air disillusion,
And the rulers of the roost know the people are tired
And there's gonna be some retribution.


How much longer do we go on living
here the scum do the taking and we do the giving?
Got what they want by treading on our backs
They're pushing and pushing and soon we're gonna crack.
They watch in fear from their privileged position
Try to make a change, they beat you to submission -
Still think you live in the land of the free? -
Just take a look around at your democracy.

You're not allowed to demonstrate, talk or discuss,
Respectable people say it causes a fuss.
Keep your views to yourself if you value your health
'Cause the law of the land obeys the wealth,
The wealth made from slavery, killing and stealing
By the people at the top - they've got no feelings,
To whom we should be grateful, they got a bigger plateful,
Left us with nothing and they wonder why we're hateful.

They story continues, the parasites thrive,
Our world is endangered throughout our lives,
Their fingers on triggers, their wallets get bigger,
Filthy income is a twenty-digit-figure.
Call me a crook? Just you take a look,
The positions they got and the massacre it took.
The people are frightened and trying to survive,
The name of the game is genocide.
