Starve The Beast Lyrics

(Verse)
Wake up, wake up, are you thinking?
Wonder if you'll recognize the plan, they call starve the beast,
A manufactured crisis for their need.
Get you scared so you cannot think straight,
Blame everybody but those with power, those responsible,
Divide and conquer the people.

(Chorus)
Wonder how much longer we will tolerate,
The few to hoard it all, while we all tremble in shame
I want to know.
I want to know.
I wanna know
I wanna know

(Verse)
Find money for the jails and wars,
Find money for wall street overlords, so sorry we cannot
Afford health care or your education.
Socialism for all the rich men.
Bailouts, tax havens, corporate welfare.
Maybe what's good for them, might be good for us?

(Chorus)
I wonder how much longer will we tolerate,
The few to hoard it all, while thousands starve every day.
I want to know.
I want to know.
I want to know.

(Verse)
"There comes a time when, the operation of the machine,
Becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart,
You can't take part, can't even passively take part;
You've got to put your bodies upon the gears,
Upon the wheels and all the apparatus.
And you've got to make it stop, make it stop." (paraphrased by Mario Savio speech, 1964)

Let's get together and occupy the world over
Let's get together and occupy the world over
Let's get together and occupy the world over

Let's get together and occupy the world over
Let's get together and occupy the world over
Let's get together and occupy the world over
