Land of the blind President Mean, well he once had a dream Bout the world in his hand Then sold them a scheme, life support the machine Off the fat of the land Taught them a prayer, shackled them to the law Gave them words to believe Life was so cheap Soon became a disease So close your eyes and count to ten Breath it in and out again I hope you understand In the land of the blind The one eyed man is king Logic was burnt, so nobody could learn Coz their minds were too green He shadowed the past, rewrote history Fast To enhance the new themes Point at the weak, blame the vulnerable meek For the failure of state Make fools of the poor As the profits were raped So close your eyes and count to ten Breath it in and out again I hope you understand In the land of the blind The one eyed man is king So close your eyes and count to ten Breath it in and out again I hope you understand In the land of the blind The one eyed man is king Down on the streets Where they can't feel their feet Coz they've no shoes to wear And the starving are mocked Coz the people don't stop for a minute to care We celebrate fools, Coz we've nothing to lose Except all that we've gained When sympathy seems like a yesterday's dream We'll all shoulder the blame Like salt in the cut, or a fist to the gut better suffer the sting Keep your mouth shut, better hold your end up Or your down fall we'll bring Who care if it's right, it's a question of might Despite how wrong it feels If ya keep your nose clean Turn away from the scene It's all part of the deal Fake don't relate, the position you take Means perspectives are skewed Black can be white, If the conditions are right And the violence crude The piper will pipe till you dance with delight if the mob gets their fun Trample the truth till it's not worth it's use Unless forced by the gun
