Lyrics
Wow, it came down upon us and it spread like the rats,
The situation or issue descended upon us unexpectedly and rapidly, much like an infestation of rats.
I can't seem to remember saying O.K. to that.
I don't recall agreeing to or approving of this.
We're supposed to stand by and watch the swine grow fat,
We're expected to passively observe while corrupt or undeserving individuals thrive.
No way I would've agreed with that!
I would have never consented to that situation.
We shall have no other god than the new economy,
We are expected to prioritize the new economic system above all else.
But don't you believe there's gonna be room for you and me.
Despite this emphasis on the new economy, there might not be space or consideration for both you and me.
We must have found a way of making money for free,
We must have discovered a method of generating money without effort.
They call it alchemy, but I call it fucking robbery
While labeled as alchemy, I perceive it as blatant theft.
Maybe the sun will rise and the grass will grow,
There might be hope for improvement or change.
I just thought, I just thought I'd let you know
I felt it necessary to inform you about this possibility.
If this is only gonna be about win or lose, win or lose,
If this situation is solely about winning or losing, with no other considerations, then I'd like to excuse myself.
Then may I please be excused
Expressing a desire to remove oneself from a scenario focused solely on winning or losing.
Well it's here to take over you may rest assured,
This situation is poised to dominate or take control.
Unless you make yourself heard, stand up and tell them to stop!
Unless we voice our dissent, we won't be able to halt it. We need to stand up and demand it stops.
But it won't be stopped easily,
Halting or resisting this won't be an easy task.
No it won't even slow down for a little democracy
It won't even slow down to consider democratic processes or values.
Maybe the sun will rise and the grass will grow,
There's still a possibility of positive change or improvement.
I, I, I, I just thought I'd let you know
I wanted to make sure you were aware of this potential.
If this is only gonna be about win or lose, win or lose,
If this situation remains solely about winning or losing, I'd like to withdraw myself.
May I please be excused
A repetition of the desire to remove oneself from a win/lose-centric scenario.
If we still don't recognize who's being used, who's being used,
Expressing a need to identify who is being manipulated or used in this situation.
May I please be excused
A reiterated desire to distance oneself if the manipulation or exploitation persists.
