2.	Gilded Corporate Teats 07:40	lyrics	buy track
Gilded Corporate Teats One corporation, as many votes As their influence and money can buy Big pharma lobbies to keep weed illegal While growing rich from peddling opioids Big oil fracking their way to more filthy profits Blocking alternatives to fossil fuels Commercial banks securing their next bailout Looking for new ways to bleed their client base Greedy senators suckling from a gilded corporate teat Like the einherjar drunk on Heiðrún’s golden mead Disenfranchising the working class, immigrants, and minorities Many lobbyists, the same special interest Whatever it takes to get reelected No new gun legislation Thanks to palms greased by the NRA No traction for a public option Healthcare providers continue to deny claims Minimum wage stays stagnant Large corporations keep exporting jobs and reaping tax breaks
3.	Capitalifascist State Apparatus 11:38	lyrics	buy track
Capitalifascist State Apparatus The tired and the poor Will remain tired and poor Until they learn how to exploit the system Designed to exploit them The tyranny of the 1% Keeps the working class insolvent It’s difficult to pull yourself up by the bootstraps With a jackboot on your neck Trust the invisible hand of the market Pay no attention to the men behind the screen It’s only big business clutching the purse strings That fund Super-PACs and K-Street The wolves of economic fascism In the guise of capitalist sheep The workers are fed lie after lie About the correlation Between hard work and success And that merit will out In their boardrooms the 1% Are congratulating themselves On record profits And their stranglehold on the cost of labor When the ones who control the means of production Keep politicians in the pockets of their expensive suits The state becomes an agent of capitalism’s abuses Choking the free market, exploiting the workers ECONOMIC FASCISM
