It’s time for us to make a stand
against the hogwash news we’re fed.
Majority no longer rules,
we’re prey to anarchy and fear.
Against the hogwash news we’re fed,
we must be careful where we’re led,
‘cause wickedness has shown its head.
Majority no longer rules,
and we allow it, turned to fools,
now propaganda in our schools.
We’re prey to anarchy and fear,
attacking all that we hold dear.
Our leadership is cavalier.
