I wanna scream that this is
I wanna scream that this is
I wanna scream that this is
I wanna scream that this is:
Fear-Fear-Fear-Fear-Fearā¦
Fear-Fear-Fear-Fear-Fearā¦

PSYOP $campaignsāevery four yearsā¦
Fear-Fear-Fear-Fear-Fearā¦
Fear-Fear-Fear-Fear-Fearā¦

Not the next ābubbleā and destruction it bringsā¦
Fear-Fear-Fear-Fear-Fearā¦
Fear-Fear-Fear-Fear-Fearā¦
Fear anthrax in plastic-wrapped homesā/duct tape
Not Nazis, Plutocrats nurtureāand helped escapeā
Of course, whatās most to fear is deadly fear itself:
Leaving revolution resting on the corporate shelfā¦
