Engage the Fear Machine
Fear Machine Unleashed: A Symphony of Apocalypse and Paranoia
Lyrics
Here we go again, the world is coming to an end
Expressing a recurring sense of impending doom and chaos in the world.
Engage the fear machine and collect the dividends
Suggesting a deliberate activation of fear for profit or gain.
That's it, you filthy monkeys
Derogatory reference to humans, possibly implying chaotic behavior.
Keep your eyes on the bright and shiny
Encouraging attention to distracting and attractive things amid chaos.
Just for you, a brand new-and-improved catastrophe
Introducing a new disaster, sarcastically presented as an improvement.
Pure-bred Pavlov, prime time apocalypse
Comparing people to conditioned dogs, facing a televised apocalypse.
Hit the panic button and reap the bloody benefits
Encouraging panic to profit from the resulting chaos and suffering.
Paranoia writes the checks
Stating that irrational fear is the driving force behind destructive actions.
Strung out like a marionette
Describing a state of extreme tension and control, akin to a puppet.
A hole in the sky, a hole in your head
Symbolizing both a damaged world and a disturbed state of mind.
It's business as usual
Normalizing the occurrence of disasters as part of daily life.
We're bringing you disaster in high-def
Promising a vivid portrayal of disaster in high-definition.
Once again, my friends the world is coming to an end
Reiterating the belief that the world is facing inevitable destruction.
No empty threat this time, so let the witch hunts begin
Asserting that the threat is real this time, instigating witch hunts.
The sky is falling, seal the boarders, heighten the anxiety
Calling for heightened security measures in response to fear.
A steady diet of hysteria shapes history
Suggesting that constant exposure to fear shapes the course of history.
Pure-bred Pavlov, prime time apocalypse
Repeating the comparison of people to conditioned dogs amid apocalypse.
Hit the panic button and reap the bloody benefits
Encouraging panic for personal gain during apocalyptic events.
Paranoia writes the checks
Stating that irrational fear is the driving force behind destructive actions.
Strung out like a marionette
Describing a state of extreme tension and control, akin to a puppet.
A hole in the sky, a hole in your head
Symbolizing both a damaged world and a disturbed state of mind.
It's business as usual
Normalizing the occurrence of disasters as part of daily life.
We're bringing you disaster in high-def
Promising a vivid portrayal of disaster in high-definition.
Stream the latest threat from the limelight economists
Suggesting that threats are broadcasted by influential economists.
Fabricated peril from contagion to communists
Alleging the creation of fake dangers from diseases to political ideologies.
Fear delivered to your door by racketeers and strategists
Accusing manipulative individuals and strategists of delivering fear.
Another advertisement war sold by the media terrorists
Describing war as a product sold by media entities acting as terrorists.
Paranoia writes the checks
Reiterating that irrational fear drives destructive actions.
Strung out like a marionette
Describing a state of extreme tension and control, akin to a puppet.
A hole in the sky, a hole in your head
Symbolizing both a damaged world and a disturbed state of mind.
It's business as usual
Normalizing the occurrence of disasters as part of daily life.
We're bringing you disaster in high-def
Promising a vivid portrayal of disaster in high-definition.
