"Engage The Fear Machine" lyrics

Here we go again, the world is coming to an end
Engage the fear machine and collect the dividends
That's it, you filthy monkeys,
Keep your eyes on the bright and shiny
Just for you, a brand new-and-improved catastrophe

Pure-bred Pavlov, prime-time apocalypse
Hit the panic button and reap the bloody benefits

Paranoia writes the checks
Strung out like a marionette
A hole in the sky, a hole in your head
It's business as usual
We're bringing you disaster in high-def

Once again, my friends: the world is coming to an end
No empty threat this time, so let the witch hunts begin
The sky is falling, seal the borders, heighten the anxiety
A steady diet of hysteria shapes history

Pure-bred Pavlov, prime-time apocalypse
Hit the panic button and reap the bloody benefits

Paranoia writes the checks
Strung out like a marionette
A hole in the sky, a hole in your head
It's business as usual
We're bringing you disaster in high-def

Stream the latest threat from the limelight economists
Fabricated peril from contagion to communists
Fear delivered to your door by racketeers and strategists
Another advertisement war sold by the media terrorists

Paranoia writes the checks
Strung out like a marionette
A hole in the sky, a hole in your head
It's business as usual
We're bringing you disaster in high-def
