Testo Amen

strategically planning in neckties and newsbriefs
self-appointed slackers spend their first day in fatigues
blue suits and brown skin shake hands and wear grins
photo-op for cnn in repetition will sink in our psyche
good vs. evil is the slogan we're selling
while secretly in silos phallic missiles are sitting
the fbi went back to school to smoke out mercenaries
racial profiling's cruel though sometimes necessary agents in training are busy detaining those who fit the file
and exercise the right to hold you without charge without trial
saying where do you eat what do you study
where do sleep list all your buddies
we'll be watching you we'll be back to talk to you
there's two takes on one front one diluted for the masses
political propaganda implies we dominate the fascists
but the same story overseas says we better watch our asses
and divert some of that power to initiate some changes
for the benefit every future generation
somebody say amen
somebody say amen
