No Spine
I've got no spine
I don't sleep, I just get high
Sit down, and make you work
I joined the DSA 'cause I wanna get laid
It's not exploitation if you don't get paid
I want a landlord in the sheets, indentured servant in the streets;
Internal contradictions are good for business
But my computer thinks you're strange
The change in your pocket wasn't enough to pay my rent;
So you'll sleep on the train
The new Mussolini's gonna get it running on time
How can I cash in on this great train?
I wanna move up!
I've got no spine
I don't breathe, I just gentrify
And keep turning a blind eye
She can't go to class 'cause her teacher is an octopus
She can't find a job 'cause the means are owned by capitalists
Can't even fall asleep 'cause there's bugs in her mattress
But she could make a killing in the weapons business!
It's a lucrative one
'Cause what kind of loser doesn't wanna buy a gun
And another one, and another one?
A gun to the head keeps the drummer playing on time
Where could you find a freer market than this?
I wanna get rich!
I've got no spine
I don't eat, I just get by
And keep riding this dead horse
I'm a TV news anchor, I talk a lot of bullshit
Got no moral compass, so I'm rolling in it
I take the struggles of the people, and I spin them around
So that the People stay subservient to corporate interests
But it's not so easy
To control your mind when you wanna be free
I don't see why you won't just listen to me;
Don't you know I'm the one who keeps the drone bombs dropping on time?
When can I get the attention I crave?
I wanna be a star!
I've got no spine;
I look good, I drink fine wine
And get ready for the end times
