Abolish Government / Silent Majority by T.S.O.L Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1981

Abolish government, it's nothing to me
Forget about God, he's not here to see
We live by a system, a perfect mold
People, perfect people who are poor and old
Lives were spent on the ladder of success
Working for nothing in this, in this worthless mess
President's a name, president's a label
Highest man on the government table

America, land of the free
Free to the power of the people in uniform

People are so blind, you just can't see
Send your son to boot camp, send him off to war
If he comes back he'll be dead and nothing more
Struggle for a land, for a country, for a freedom
All you mindless people look to somebody to lead them

Wake up to the same old shit
Live your life to suit their fit
Some people, they don't like your hair
Policemen just don't care
Snipers that want to be
Rifle sights are aimed at me

Wake up, silent majority!

The government, they don't want us here
You folks can't feel that fear
You can walk the streets today
You can walk in your own way

People think that I'm crazy
These people just can't see

Wake up, silent majority!

Live your life day by day
Doing everything that they say

Silent majority!

Promote freedom, let it be heard
Don't forget that it's only a word

Silent majority
When you gonna wake up?
