We the People

I thought we the people had a brain I thought we the people had a say Coulda sworn, I read it somewhere Thought I'd seen it on a bumper sticker I thought we the people had a right I guess we the people were wrong We the people, always are Let's go elect another God The laws, they make, I don't give a damn anyway Rules are made to break, to bend, to beat, to buy The American dream or a bag of magic beans You can find it on the TV whatever you need Send me, you're tired, you're poor and broken Send me your life so I can break you We the people can have a plan We the people can make a stand Coulda sworn I read it somewhere Might've seen it in the funny papers Your money's made to take, to cheat, to steal, to rob I can sell you a dream, fat's bustin' at the seams You can get it on the TV whatever you need Send me you're tired, you're poor and broken Send me your life so I can break you Give me your trust, your faith and wishes Give me your life so I can own you, control you Own, buy, sell out Own, buy, sell out Everyday there's something new to try Everyday there's something new to buy Everyday there's a new American dream Goin' broke in the land of opportunity Send me, you're tired, you're poor and broken Send me your life so I can break you Give me your trust, your faith and wishes Give me your life so I can own you
