"The Antibody Politic" lyrics - SKYCLAD

Free citizens of Planet Earth
The leptons in some base equation
Bound by swaddling chains from birth
Unto travail and assentation

Given what they're taught to crave
Denied the truths they sorely need
Shown a future new and brave
Frog-marched towards it at fools' speed

If there's anyone else out there
Disillusioned just like me
It's time we tried to turn the tide
With an overwhelming minority
The masses are numb, their ethics awry
Nothing's as dumb as the Vox Populi
So, if there's anyone else out there
Aiming sawn-off philosophy
Let's all unite and make things right
With an overwhelming minority

No seed of hope nor ray of light
Scant succour from the blighted epoch
Rise like Socrates and fight
Take hate's chalice laced with hemlock

Mankind's retrograde ascent
We've wagered all for unseen winnings
Evolution's youth misspent
It's time to forge bold new beginnings

If there's anyone else out there
Disillusioned just like me
It's time we tried to turn the tide
With an overwhelming minority
Bolt from the herd bleating like sheep
Hang for your words, don't perish asleep
If there's anyone else out there
Aiming sawn-off philosophy
Let's all unite and make things right
With an overwhelming minority
