Bad Religion - Politics Lyrics






Economy, technology, does it really work?
The guy running the government's another jerk
Try to teach some values and they all erode away
You're lucky if they listen to a single word you say.

What is right and what is wrong, government decides
You don't have to like the laws as long as you abide
We're all being oppressed by the upper-middle class
The government you vote for is the one that you possess.

I'm so tired and now I'm through, I'm through and so are you
Oppressive fear from presidents, it's us, not the government
We control the masses of the whole entire race
Soon our streets will all get filled without a happy face.

    Still very relevant in 2016 with the circus of the American presidential election coming up.

    To all of you saying that being born in the 90's sucks, you don't really get the idea!!!
    Every decade has a different sound but the bands alway grows up with the music a decade before. We have to "make" our new sound for the new decade! Not just listen to the past. (even though it sounded awesome)

  3. m.... ....

    Born in the 70s and I am STILL a punk rock lover! Once a punk rocker always a punk rocker. :)

  4. G.... ....

    This song was written 30 years ago, it's on their first EP.they were 15-16 years old kids. it says "upper middle class", anyway, i agree that such things may sound ironic to hear nowadays, but it's just that time goes on and people grow up and change. it's human and happens for everyone, as sad as it may seem. BR have over 200 songs, created at different times in the last 30 years. it's normal if there's a song that contradicts another one, etc.. that's what i think :)
