Lyrics

My jaded visions of a

Expressing disillusionment with idealized visions

Jaded city broken

Describing a city in a state of decay or fatigue

By a jaded wealthy jettison

Highlighting the negative impact of wealthy influences

We're not fine, we're not fine, we're not fine

Emphasizing a state of unwellness or societal issues


Put your children in a choke-hold

Criticizing the mistreatment of children and the poor

Put the poor in a choke-hold

-

There's no such thing as a broken home

-

There's no such thing as a broken home

-

Tell that to the front line

Pointing out societal problems in various lines of work

The bread line, the welfare line

-

The factory line

-

The factory line

-

The factory line

-

The factory line

-

I dream

Expressing a dream of a guillotine and warning about consequences

Guillotine

-

Don't tell me where we'll end

-

You'll be sorry when we're good and dead

-

My bastard visions of a

Using "bastard" to describe negative aspects of a city

Bastard city broken

-

By a bastard wealthy jettison

-

We're not fine, we're not fine, we're not fine

-

Put the children in a choke-hold

Continuing criticism of mistreatment and denial of broken homes

Put the poor in a choke-hold

-

There's no such thing as a broken home

-

There's no such thing as a broken home

-

Tell that to the front line

Pointing out problems in front lines, bread lines, and lotteries

The bread line, the welfare line

-

The lottery line

-

The lottery line

-

The lottery line

-

The lottery line

-

I dream

Repeating the dream of a guillotine, emphasizing consequences

Guillotine

-

Don't tell me we're well fed

-

You'll be sorry when we're good and dead

-

All aboard

Using "All aboard" to signify a collective involvement

All aboard

-

All aboard

-

All aboard

-

All aboard the cocaine ghost train

Referring to a "cocaine ghost train" as a metaphor for societal issues

All aboard the cocaine ghost train

-

All aboard the cocaine ghost train

-

We're not fine, we're not fine, we're not fine

-

I dream

Reiterating the dream of a guillotine and warning about consequences

Guillotine

-

Don't tell me we're well fed

-

You'll be sorry when we're good and dead
