Weakened states, weakened nation
Banks on the verge of collapse
Governments tinker with economies of scale
While individuals fall through the cracks..
Lies borne out of selfishness and gluttony
Inflated bubbles on the backs of you and me
Easy money to fulfil your American Dream
Now the debt that defines our children's reality
Mass delusion yesterday,
Mass hysteria today,
No credit, only blame
No responsibility, only shame
Robbing Peter to pay Paul to save our homes
As the American Empire goes the way of Rome…
Hail, hail..
"Obama, Obama, save us, save us
Save us from our harsh reality
We're obviously incapable of a life without debt
So please go and print some more money!"
Hyperinflation, devaluation
Revolution crouches on the horizon
Unemployment adding timber to the blaze
Lady Liberty is shaking from her daze!
Mass delusion yesterday,
Mass hysteria today,
No credit, only blame
No responsibility, only shame!
Robbing Peter to pay Paul to save our homes
As the American Empire goes the way of Rome…
Mass delusion yesterday,
Mass hysteria today,
No credit, only blame
No responsibility, only shame.
America is a house of cards, frail and weak at the seams
Time to stand up and fight, bring the establishment to its knees.
Banks on the verge of collapse
Governments tinker with economies of scale
While individuals fall through the cracks..
Lies borne out of selfishness and gluttony
Inflated bubbles on the backs of you and me
Easy money to fulfil your American Dream
Now the debt that defines our children's reality
Mass delusion yesterday,
Mass hysteria today,
No credit, only blame
No responsibility, only shame
Robbing Peter to pay Paul to save our homes
As the American Empire goes the way of Rome…
Hail, hail..
"Obama, Obama, save us, save us
Save us from our harsh reality
We're obviously incapable of a life without debt
So please go and print some more money!"
Hyperinflation, devaluation
Revolution crouches on the horizon
Unemployment adding timber to the blaze
Lady Liberty is shaking from her daze!
Mass delusion yesterday,
Mass hysteria today,
No credit, only blame
No responsibility, only shame!
Robbing Peter to pay Paul to save our homes
As the American Empire goes the way of Rome…
Mass delusion yesterday,
Mass hysteria today,
No credit, only blame
No responsibility, only shame.
America is a house of cards, frail and weak at the seams
Time to stand up and fight, bring the establishment to its knees.

Lyrics & Music by Andy Laverghetta
Album: Symptomatic
"A thrashing political statement... unintentionally began to sound like a Dave Mustaine tribute when I pushed my voice to the edge and beyond.. Just like most Americans, I'm sick of the BS we've been fed.."
