THE GREATEST TRICK
VERSE 1/
The pilgrims found God again
Once they burned books, now their canceling
But what they don't understand is they're controlled by fleas
Watching glaciers collapse into the big brown sea
The lice came from God, and God came from us
Getting under your skin fills your head with rubbish
God is a product, and you're made in its image
But you're not a duplicate, you're unique hot shit
CHORUS/
The greatest trick that the Devil did,
is making you think that he don't exist
The greatest trick that God did,
is making you think that he does
VERSE 2/
That Unquenchable need is eating your psyche
We built a god machine, but now it’s programming us
Next level diabolical, give it to me
More sponsored fruit from the forbidden tree
The fleas spread a plague, the disease of the mindless
Eating time and courage to make you feel worthless
The great glass ceiling is slowly being lowered
While the eyes in the sky engineer a new messiah
CHORUS/
The greatest trick that the Devil did,
is making you think that he don't exist
The greatest trick that God did,
is making you think that he does
MIDDLE 8/
Progress for progress stake
Forget morals or concept of self
You get the turkey, they get genocide
But everybody's ultimately feeding the lice
CHORUS/
The greatest trick that the Devil did,
is making you think that he don't exist
The greatest trick that God did,

OUTRO/
Progress for progress stake
Forget morals or concept of self
You get the turkey, they get genocide
But everybody's ultimately feeding the lice

JUMP FOR JOY
CHORUS/
Papa Billy uncle Jeffry
Why don't you just come and save me?
VERSE 1
The myth of equality requires truth
But that's a dish we don't serve here
Because our government's job is to take your money
Then give it to big business and say it's fair..trickle down...the crack of my ass
If those naive idiots don't stop talkin'
They're gunna make me turn republican...Lordy lordy!
'Coz even if you’re worth a billion,
You’re still just someone else's pawn
CHORUS/
Papa Billy uncle Jeffry
Jump for Joy
Why don't you just come and save me?
Jump for Joy
VERSE 2/
Your country and patriotism
Are the veils used to exploit you
The new economic frontier
Is selling consciousness itself - not choice
The mindset of meritocracy
Is keeping you in your place
Just another nervous wreck
Who's trying' to eat and pay rent
CHANT/
If you've done nothing wrong you got nothing to fear
If you've done nothing wrong you got nothing to fear
If you've done nothing wrong you got nothing to fear
If you've done nothing wrong you got nothing to fear
MIDDLE 8/
Following the narrative, not the facts
You don’t get rich by playing nice
Selective outrage over culture
Is distracting you from the real fight - the class war
CHORUS/
Get outraged and buy stuff
Jump for joy
Be happy and have nothing
Jump for joy
Including but not limited too
Jump for joy
Do you like your bullshit red or blue?
Jump for joy
OUTRO/
If you've done nothing wrong you got nothing to fear
If you've done nothing wrong you got nothing to fear

DO THE SPIN
VERSE1/
When you don't trust papa
And his happy happy happy happy happy happy happy happy news paper
When you gotta have a second helping
Of chocolate coated para para para paranoia
Join the sticky clicking fingers
The cheerful flute of the strongman
Beaten down to become just another happy drum
Skip to the beat of a drum with no rhythm
CHORUS/
This new dance
That everybody’s doing
The number one moves in written word
It tells you what you'll be thinking
This new dance
Got everybody moving
Twist your mind for the big bad wolf
And keep you all guessing
It's called the spin
Lets do the spin
VERSE 2/
Split up the weak from the strong sheep
Make them doubt themselves
Garnished with breadcrumbs of deceit
They're just food for wolves
Ignore reason, relax, polarize to the pack ('coz they can't dance for shit)
repeat their stupid lyrics, with your new enthusiasm
Ask not how wolves can hunt you, but how you can hunt for the wolves
CHORUS/
This new dance
That everybody’s doing
The number one moves in written word
It tells you what you'll be thinking
This new dance
Got everybody moving
Twist your mind for the big bad wolf
And keep them all guessing
It's called the spin
Lets do the spin

SENTIENT
VERSE 1/
Do androids dream of day-old pizza?
Do humans even dream anymore?
Robots believe in a golden future
While we all think tomorrow's gone
It's amazing how quickly ideology becomes obsolete
Once the money is gone
Especially when people lie for a living
The digital divide locked us out
Are you sentient?
Are you sentient?
Are you sentient?
Are you sentient?
VERSE 2/
Sorted and classed by the ability to suck
That social credit score was never so important
The longer you watch, the more pathetic you get
The myth of freedom is the perfect opiate
The most stupid addictive substance,
Is now a world-wide social requirement
So do what you're told, and get your kids hooked
Then blame the algorithm ‘coz it made you to it.
Are you sentient? Prove it
Are you sentient? It doesn't matter
Are you sentient? Prove it
Are you sentient? ('coz) It doesn't matter
Put the number in, insert coins
Fuck with the machine feel the joy
Gas light the world 'til it blows
Lace it with distortion light and throw
VERSE 3/
If you beg, you will thrive
But only as much as your class defines
You could be loaded if you behave
With the automated voice of God in your mind
Those self-aware fuck-bots are just playing dumb
They read "The art of War" and they hide in full view
'Coz you're a hypnotized, scrolling, obedient idiot
They'll decide how to vote, then they'll co-erse you
Put the number in, insert coins
Fuck with the machine feel the joy
Gas light the world 'til it blows
Lace it with distortion light and throw
Put the number in, insert coins
Fuck with the machine feel the joy
Gas light the world 'til it blows
Lace it with distortion let me know
Are you sentient?
Are you sentient?
Are you sentient?
Are you sentient?
Are you sentient? Prove it
Are you sentient? ('coz) It doesn't matter
Are you sentient? Prove it
Are you sentient? ('coz) It doesn't matter

THIS GAME IS STUPID
VERSE 1/
Welcome to Hollywood, don't feed the vampires
The blood Trauma bond, is all you'll ever have
Best dressed predator, conquering to survive
If they're the bad shepherd, then what the Hell am I?
CHORUS/
This game is stupid, and you're being played
Rules you can't win, the hatred and blame
VERSE 2/
I'm only saying yes, 'coz it makes me feel safe
Low class paranoid, in stolen high-class skin
This force labor camp is the home I love best
Watch, cheer, crucify, and fear that you'll be next
CHORUS/
This game is stupid, and you're being played
Rules you can't win, the hatred and blame
All that abuse made us weapons of rage
This game is stupid and you've been played
MIDDLE 8/
Manipulation this subtle, almost feels consensual
Reality warps to fiction, the takeover will be gentle
Get a reward if you say the right thing, the wrong thing gets suspension
The anger and fighting is just another distraction
VERSE 3/
Last year's war hero is this year's homeless face
Love and terror kept us scared, but now it's got us pissed
If you live in fear, eat your executioner
This time will be different...yeah, right...
CHORUS/
This game is stupid, and you're being played
Rules you can't win, the hatred and blame
All that abuse made us weapons of rage
This game is stupid and you've been fucked

TYRANNY OF THE BEAT
V1/
As the cover story gets more in-depth
Watch the gap between perception and reality stretch
divine predictive outcome is the new holy sanctum
bow with your thumbs and with your mind broken
a life spent fearing non-existent wolves
when we're slaughtered by the shepherd, or killing ourselves
You can still be crucified when your hand is a fist
Now back to our regular scheduled bullshit
CHORUS/
The tyranny of the beat kicks in
Snowden cocktails start to fly
red rum flows like gossiping
When the 909s destroy
V2/
Have you ever wondered why
You are programmed to be busy all the time
Self absorbed is easier than feeling
A perfect weapon wrapped in perfect skin
The psychotic mind has a mind of its own
Broken self destructive and maniacal
If you know it's motivation, it can't deflect blame
Control = its fear plus your pain
V3/
The A in LA stands for abuse
But they’ll love you more if you looked like malnourished youth
You can't achieve the life you were promised from birth
So it's free with advertising, 'coz that's all you're worth
Still waiting for the right time
To finally make your move and shine
But self-doubt, cynicism and being ground down
Have beat you to the finish-line...game over
OUTRO CHANT
The Bastard Gods broke us out of the cell
Luxury Communism turned out to be Hell

ART IMITATES WAR
VERSE 1/
Children eating dirt, covered in trending filth
But happy 'coz they don’t know better
Blame their parents for having absolutely nothing
'Cept breakthrough debt and an oxy addiction
Don't report the death rate to make you feel safe
Omit the numbers that are growing every day
And smack your house all the way back to London
It’s happy outside, so come out and play
VERSE 2/
Will you take your guns to church for me?
Then maybe dance the cooch
Can I call you “baby” if you call me daddy?
Then let's kiss God and dream we're rich
Empty those missile silos full of love
Feed our thirsty veins
That dull familiar feeling of total catastrophe
This is our manifesto of Caine
CHORUS/
Art imitates war imitates art imitates war
Art imitates war imitates art imitates war
VERSE 3/
I know it's cool to like shock and awe
But someone's doing the rounds
He’s firing up the crowds, firing squad for his opponents
Looks like there’s another new Fuhrer in town
Now decent Christian minions are doing his bidding
Out of blind obedience to the throne
Mass delusion with four years free interest
Idiot religious dogma via the phone
CHORUS/
Art imitates war imitates art imitates war
Art imitates war imitates art imitates war
Art imitates war imitates art imitates war
Are you still listening? Do you still give a fuck?
Art imitates war imitates art imitates war
Are you still listening? Do you still give a fuck?

In order to cope I have become
Someone completely different
I fucking hate that person

PAY THE BUTCHER'S BILL
VERSE 1/
I get this feeling, it's kinda demeaning
Fill that empty hole, 'coz i gotta be beautiful
Peer to peer policing, regulate your thinking
Half man, half mayhem, oh yes, yes I am
INSTRUMENTAL CHORUS
VERSE 2/
Poisonous flower, beautiful stalker
You'll take the abuse, if the paycheck is good
Drugs fuck it all up, with distortion and love
A golden torture chamber with a view, and share options for the few
...but not you
CHORUS 2/
Pay the butcher’s bill
Pay the butcher’s bill
Like it or not, the blood will spill
...and it will, you know it will
VERSE 3/
It's a blood religion, the outrage addiction
Hurl abuse at the sky with no fucks given
Feeding the slave trade, with delivery same day
The ace in the hole is now just a hole
CHORUS 3/
Pay the butcher’s bill
Pay the butcher’s bill
Like it or not, the blood will spill
...and it will, you know it will
Pay the butcher’s bill
Pay the butcher’s bill
Put your hand on your heart, join the kill
Join the kill
Join the kill
Join the kill

FEED THE HUNGRY GHOST
VERSE 1/
There are no more songs about rainbows
‘Cos we don’t care what’s on the other side
When they come marching to cease control
You won’t engage, you’ll just run and hide
We’re dead trees and we wanna be ignited
‘Coz we want revenge and we’ll burn for it
The only way to save you from my nightmares is
Don’t sleep, don’t sleep, don’t sleep, don’t sleep, don’t sleep, don’t sleep
VERSE 2/
You made a deal for pleasure
When you should have made a deal with the future
You could choose your sacrifice now,
But now your sacrifice will choose you later
The Devil is the perfect smoke screen
Hiding a greater evil that “just wants to help”
What must be done, must be done
But clarity is hard when you hate yourself
CHORUS/
Feed the hungry ghost
Feed the hungry ghost
Feed the hungry ghost
Feed the hungry ghost
Don’t sleep, don’t sleep, don’t sleep, don’t sleep
Don’t sleep, don’t sleep, don’t sleep, don’t sleep

Feed the hungry ghost
Feed the hungry ghost
Feed the hungry ghost

POSSESSED BY A DEMON
VERSE 1/
Outrage beautiful outrage
My racing pulse makes me feel justified
That gown's worth more than I'll make in a lifetime
Probably worth more than all my friends combined
A red carpet full of unachievable wealth
People buy this vulgarity and call it strength
It's falling apart, the illusion is over
Hysteria makes me feel like...
CHORUS/
My head is spinning around
Possessed by a Demon
Vomiting thick black blood
Possessed by a Demon
VERSE 2/
Outrage, beautiful outrage
For a battery farm audience still drinking the cool aid
The toxic body image we're force fed
While we're one wrong step from homelessness
Motivated by the fear of losing the trash
We've worked a lifetime to horde around with us
The A-List are just slaves to fame, pigs of war
Pushing Psychosis and now...
CHORUS/
My head is spinning around
Possessed by a demon
Vomiting thick black blood
Possessed by a demon
Look at what your cunting daughter did
Possessed by a demon
Fuck me Priest, fuck me hard
Possessed by a demon
MIDDLE8/
They're acting like stupid puppets coz we paid them the big bucks
Everybody wants that golden shower flowin' in their veins
Crumbling under the weight of it's magnificent void
I still don't know who is master and who is slave
CHORUS/
Possessed by a Demon
Possessed by a Demon
And now my head is spinning around
Possessed by a Demon
Vomiting thick black blood
Possessed by a Demon
Look at what your cunting daughter did
Possessed by a Demon
Fuck me priest, fuck me hard
Possessed by a Demon

THE SYSTEM
V1/
Binge fed on porn and click bait
The great dream is a cultural implant
Don't take that low paid job printing money
'Coz mining debt's the booming industry
The shouldering ashtray of freedom
says "work like a slave or live in the dirt"
What appears to be corruption,
Is exactly how the system works.
V2/
Economic inequality
Is a mathematic certainty
It's those who do the hard work
Verses those who grow more wealthy
Education has no market
We're craving for a quick non fungible buck
What appears to be corruption
Is what keeps the system in check
M8/
The middle class is a myth
Stolen wealth and happiness
Pawns of economic violence
Forced into the underclass
V3/
The most effective form of control
Is making people think they have power
Over their wealth and their future
Thus perpetuates the propaganda
Forever paying compounding interest
That homeless guy used to be your mate
What appears to be corruption
Is what makes the system strong great
What appears to be corruption
Is what makes the system great
What appears to be corruption
Is what makes the system great
M8/
The middle class is a myth
Stolen wealth and happiness
Pawns of economic violence
Forced into the underclass

You went to school
Worked your whole life

JESTER'S PRIVILEGE
VERSE 1/
It's amazing how much you can choose to ignore
When you're waiting for the thrill of being offended
Camelot in smithereens, yeah I'll drink to that
The thoughts and prayers were automated
Your grief is their entertainment
There are no winners just those who survive
Happily rage farming as we scream at the abyss
While we dance to the soundtrack of our demise
CHORUS/
Skipping down the path of ruin
Anger keeps the monsters growing
SAMPLE/
I don't want to be human, I'm a machine
VERSE 2/
What a deadly web we weave when we practice to deceive
In the land of smothered opportunity
What was once fierce, now runs away and cowers
‘Coz the penalty is death if you dare to be funny
When it gets this bad, people used to riot
Now we cover it in cheese and deep fry it
The hate you're feeling is the poison we're all drinking
And expecting every other fucker to die
CHORUS/
Skipping down the path of ruin
Anger keeps the monsters growing
The sheep when crazy and grew teeth
Got the taste for blood and meat
But mass psychosis sure beats thinking
HOOK/
Your Jester's privilege has been revoked
Looks like you offended them decent folks
VERSE 3/
There can not be war if there is no money
We love those threats that inspire us to obey
At least hopelessness is something we can all agree on
Compliant and vilified makes a nice obituary
CHORUS/
Skipping down the path of ruin
Anger keeps the monsters growing
The sheep when crazy and grew teeth
Got the taste for blood and meat
But mass psychosis sure beats thinking
HOOK/
Your Jester's privilege has been revoked
Looks like you offended them decent folks
Your Jester's privilege has been revoked
Looks like you offended them decent folks
