State of the Union (Clean Version)

Sweet dreams all met with derision

This train, it was armed for collision

It's a shame, it's a shame, it's a shame

Clap your hands in the sparkle and glitter

Shake your heads at the twisted and bitter

Oh they don't know how lucky they are

Foot down for the alienation

Look on as your love, its gets lost in translation

To a language that nobody understands

There are smiles as they erode and corrupt you

Of the great expectations you could never live up to

We are lost, we are lost, we are lost

Get you coat, 'cause the righteous are leaving

Cause they can't work out what the hell to believe in

It's a shame, it's a shame, it's a shame

No abandon, no heartfelt desire

No love could be worth getting fired

For real, it's surreal, it's so real

So paint over the cracks and then cover

What you thought was the worst ever pain with another

And the first one, it always comes free

How they love you so cold and so vicious

With friends like these, well who needs politicians

The first one, its always comes free

They tell you heroin takes like ice cream

Clever men know all that and all this

And they will talk and they talk and the don't fucking listen

It's a shame, it's a shame, it's a shame

It's no life but God, it's a living

Come on Jesus Christ, come back all is forgiven

We are lost, we are lost, we are lost

Have no fear of the state of the nation

Let the facts have no bearing on public relations

It's a shame, it's a shame, it's a shame

What a model of Christian behavior

Preach on with the message of "go fuck thy neighbor"

It's a shame, it's a shame, it's a shame

It's a shame, it's a shame

Watch your step by the crowd of fanatics

While they kill in the name of applied mathematics

Hate the system even though you invented it

Go kill your brothers and claim self defense of it

Picking up all the secrets and tricks to being

One of the guys whom the shit never sticks to

Take you seats for the final calamity

Don't you look serious, hell, what can the matter be?

Another day and the rot's getting faster

And all the machines started killing the master

It's a shame, it's a shame, it's a shame

It's a shame, it's a shame
