"THE LIST" lyrics

"THE LIST"

His name is on the list
Written at the top
He says it don't exist
Unless they cross it off

He wants us to forget
Says we're just paranoid
He can make it disappear
In a static feed of white noise

Every day on the news
They run another headline
It's hard to see the truth
In a sea of little white lies

If it's been covered up
Was it even there?
If they don't think it's real
They won't even care

The television
Says look away

They won't admit it
But they're being payed

Aha
They're on the list
What list

On the list

His name is on the list
Starred and underlined
He says it isn't him
They just look a lot alike

Maybe you'll disappear
Maybe you'll just drop dead
Maybe a suicide
Or a bullet in the head

The television
Says look away

They won't admit it
But they're being payed

Aha
They're on the list

What list

The politicians
Are saving face
They won't admit it
But they're being played

Aha
They're on the list

On the list

Watch him sweat
Watch him squeal
Like a stuck pig
In the pen
With his heels
In the mud pit

Every little piggy on the farm has got a master
They live to serve him till they meet him at the rapture

We can start a war
Drop a bomb
Fund a genocide
And then a couple more
If we want
We could even hide
A concentration camp in a swamp
If a holocaust is coming
They won't have the time to wonder if his name is on the list

"His name is on the list"

"What list"
