lyrics

1st verse
I don't believe the malarkey spewed by the oligarchy
guess if your rich and I'm poor than it makes it cool to mock me

I also love the way they scream out class warfare
the moment that we notice you're taking way more than your share

these politicians are playing down your influence
thinking that I'm stupid but truth is I'm seeing right through it

these mogul masters of the universe are lording over resources
leaving the rest of us with no re courses

so I don't want to hear you talk about a class war
until you see us mad enough to ratchet up and break jaws

until us savages start ravaging your palaces
and greet you in the street then beat your ass and take your packages

until that happens all of this is only conversation
remember your station's predicated on the people's patience

and their decision to wallow in all the ignorance
and pacify themselves with distraction so they don't give a shit

chorus
Hey stupid
you really think they care about you
you think they'd shed a single tear inside their beer without you

Hey stupid
I think you're lacking common sense
you're only really here to benefit the one percent

Hey stupid
that's right you said that you ignore them
but that don't matter cause you still be bending over for them

Hey stupid
you might want an investigation
to find out how they always killing you with legislation

2nd verse
The middle class is so violently getting smashed
while these wily politicians bend over to kiss the ass

of their corporate masters these bastards that spend a lot of millions
sometimes I picture them swirling their mustaches like villains

I'm not feeling the optics of this sick demented scenario
outsourcing occupations disrupt all of the cash flow

it's probably a fact that none of these jobs are coming back
financially trapped while the wealthy count all their money stacks

what kind of businessman put money on a campaign
unless he's just investing on some shit he plans to maintain

no need to imagine or go invent conspiracies
to make the observation on some shit that we can clearly see

fuck all that patriotic rhetoric they feeding you
and really take a look at the current system that's bleeding you

the people that cheated were classified too big to fail
and all of you got mad but not one of them fuckers went to jail

chorus
Hey stupid
you really think they care about you
you think they'd shed a single tear inside their beer without you

Hey stupid
I think you're lacking common sense
you're only really here to benefit the one percent

Hey stupid
that's right you said that you ignore them
but that don't matter cause you still be bending over for them

Hey stupid
you might want an investigation
to find out how they always killing you with legislation
