lyrics

The system gives you categories
To keep you all defined
You live to the image
Totally devoid of mind
The groups play by the system’s rules
The system they condemn
Preach universal freedom
When they mean freedom for them

When you write to them
You just receive a printed letter
Don’t you think a group that ‘cares’
Could do a little better
Pay them money, join their club
To show that you’re a fan
You’re feeding the fire
Playing right into their hands

Even when you see them live
You’re getting a bad deal
Herded into massive halls
No atmosphere, no feel
Anything with their name on
You must rush out and buy
The more you get
The more you just perpetuate the lie

Accept the shit they give you
Don’t admit you’re being conned
Give it two more years
Then you’ll see that you were wrong
You think by elevating them
You’ll cast away your chains
But when they’re rich and famous
You’ll still be just the same
