Bloodshot engineers
Try to manufacture fears
Because they know how it feels
To run on cogs and gears and wheels
And they won't sleep at night
Till they get it right
They won't sleep at night
Till they get it right

I enjoy punk rock and a rolling stone
But sometimes I wish, they'd leave me alone
All those volatile guilty pleasures
Like saying things that don't mean much at all
Staring at the ceiling and wondering at the walls

I want to crash and bash and slash
At each established backstablishment
But now I've been told to wait in line
Sign up for duty and put away your signs
Everything seems to be quite worthy

Punk rock against the government
Now we work side by side
How can you train those men
And teach them how to hide?

Admiral we have a major development
There's a hole in our armor
Save all the kings and queens
And kill the moisture farmers

Bloodshot engineers
Manufacture fears
As my children often say
Daddy,
Your ties not on straight
Wait until they see
What's been hiding inside of me.

Don't you dare let those kids see what's not straight - well, not just yet....

This of course is a WOW!

This reminds me more of Pink Floyd! But with a slight mix of the Sex Pistols. But I'm showing my age. Show it all! Make em' think twice Walt! LOL

and i'm shakin' the advil bottle to

praying hand, so let's jam, man,

Lots of stuff going on in here, Walt. To support the war or not to support the war. To believe what we're told or not.

Yep, this is cool. Get a band together and sing this. You know, in the old days of punk you didn't have to be able to play an instrument and ya didn't have to be able to sing. So go do it!!

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?
