Thanks for listening and have a great day!

A couple of verses about how a police state gets introduced in a country such as Australia, and about the obvious psychopathic nature of most politicians.

In case you're curious, here are some videos I borrowed

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wT9XS_TvzQ Tony Abbott's bizzarre 28 second silence following "Shit Happens" comment

Aaaand here are the lyrics:

so, so, so, slow
that's how they approach, that's how they encroach
so, so, so, slow
take all your rights and blame it on the vote
so, so, so, slow
that's how they approach, that's how they encroach
so, so, so, slow
give a handshake, end with a hand on your throat.


browsing the paper, news, normal nonsense
about the heroism of protective service officers
a noble man putting his life in danger
is this just a story or is this propaganda?

the answer is, it's in the fucking paper
you know someone had that story bought & paid fer

no gun culture in australia, seems great
but it won't be when they bring in the police state
see them on every corner, and you see your fate
you see the signs early, or you see them too late

they tell me it's a theory of conspiracy
but it happens consistently if you look through history
you think these things are unrelated, they go hand in hand
just take a couple of facts and rub them together man

how soon we forget the power of howard's mission
he limited the guns, then started work on sedition
maybe you don't realise how crazy that is yet
he wanted to make it illegal to call him a dickhead

you can see the stage is primed
to create a police state in the name of fighting crime
so any prime minister, chancellor like hitler
man with a silver tongue ace spitter
could declare you crazy and commit ya
shoot every academic like chairman mao - mister

how delicious power is to the corrupt
once you taste a little it's never enough
if people fear you with a sword in your hand
with no liability, why not expand?

power & freedom perfect for a psychopath
tyranny reigns while liberty naps
so you see the police, walkin on the streets
12 coppers on collins, out on the beat
do you really feel safe with an armed gang surrounding you
with nobody else to hold them accountable?

i'm sitting at home watching
tony abbott's head on the tv bobbing
wondering what manner of beast occupies his body
by what parasite was his mind stolen
what dark figure is in his brain forming
did he go for a weekend in the woods one mornin

and return a different man like in a /x story
because the man just doesn't seem normal
he may seem slow, physically maybe agile
tongue flicking out of his mouth like a reptile

speak with a psychopath, you're lucky to survive
tony's holding back from eating reporters alive
you can hear him stutter, trying to calculate a lie
just the kind of guy who gets ahead in politics right?

want to know what's politic, i'll teach you fast enough
it's what they said hitler was the master of.

tony abbott vs julia gillard
nobody knows if they're human or lizard
gillard comes on the tv, i can't stand it
trying to be australian, she's from another planet

if the camera was finer, picture a little clearer
you'd probably see a beast from the triassic era

there are 1% psychopaths in the population
how many of those in government placements?

walk in a government office, it's scary man
the only language they speak is authoritarian
deep in your heart you know they're psychopaths
but in polite speech we just call them bureaucrats

no conscience, cold hard calculation
no empathy just faking and manipulation

stick your knife it in the backs of your buds
climb higher using those same knives as rungs
stick your knife it in the backs of your buds
climb higher using those same knives as rungs

our lives can't be anything but toxic
as long as they're controlled by monsters
and if they won't answer to logic
i don't even want to hear what their response is

our lives can't be anything but toxic
as long as they're controlled by monsters

i don't even want to hear what their response is
