Good To Be Alive
Define life's success with the accumulation of power
Power that plugs your bleeding insecurities
Show us your social position, prove us your dominance
Hoard enough & join your bully buddies in the history books

Wield all manners of power for purely self interest
Kill altruism, slander it socialism, liberalism, whateverism

Benefit yourself & family in the short run
But like some North to South American pesticide
or some West to Middle East arms greed
(1st to 3rd World literal & economic terrorism, bla bla bla)
It'll come back to haunt you
Or all grandchildren

(The Grinch & Scrooge got nuthin' on you)

P.S. I think your new world odour is really quite rancid
Why don't you come clean & pull your big dirty plug
out of everyone elses circuit & stick it up your own socket?
Maybe we should slap a parents advisory sticker on you,
Bankrupt & blackmail you with a backwards satan & obscenity lawsuit
And restrict (i.e.near zero tolerance) the entry of your countries artists
(House of Representative Bill #HR????, around Summer 1991)
And we have free trade - HA

Perhaps some power comes out of the blue
But what you steal from me, goes to you
Despite the blackest that you may make it
There will always be moments that you can't control
Despite the blackest that you may make it
There will always be moments that you can't control where it...

Feels Good To Be Alive
