lyrics

I will keep my head in the sand
Buried in the sand

They suckered us on cigarettes
They sold us into war
Now they’re telling me it's so much better than before

Their perverted economics
defend their, their abject greed
Any problem, the free market, it fits the need

We want everything to stay the same
Because we’re afraid of change
Afraid of change

I will believe whatever they told me
I will buy whatever they sold me
I’ll fall in line whenever they scold me
I will keep my head in the sand
Buried in the sand

They’re tellin’ us that there’s no truth
So we’ll accept their, their lying game
And I keep trusting them every single day, just the same

They’re fighting for their inheritance
And to privatize our lands, they call it justice
But I’m just putting more money in their hands.

We want everything to stay the same
Because we’re afraid of change
Afraid of change

I will believe whatever they told me
I will buy whatever they sold me
I’ll fall in line whenever they scold me
I will keep my head in the sand
Buried in the sand

We’re lowering all their taxes
So we can buy them another yacht
I know trickle down is coming, I hope it's coming, it's worth a shot

They’re killing off our education
To make sure we cannot see
I think it's working great, just take a look, just look at me!

I will believe whatever they tell me
I will buy whatever they sell me
I will accept whatever their hell means
I will keep my head in the sand
Buried in the sand

We want everything to stay the same
Because we’re afraid of change
Afraid of change

I will believe whatever they told me
I will buy whatever they sold me
I’ll fall in line whenever they scold me
I will keep my head in the sand
Buried in the sand
