The Blue Feather Effect - Trust the Government

Trust the government
They have your best interest in mind
Trust the government
They help everyone they can find
Whether you're starving or homeless or poor
They'll help you out, they won't show you the door
Trust the government
Give them your money, they'll send you to war
Everything is exactly as it seems
Jet fuel melts steel beams
We count the votes we have the mean
We are united now choose your teams
Doesn't it feel great to be so free?
Isn't this just the best country?
Now listen close, repeat after me
Lee Harvey Oswald killed Kennedy
Trust the government
They are the rule, they are the state
Trust the government
If you're born here then this is your fate
Whether you're gay or hispanic or black
you know that they always will have your back
Trust the government
They're on your side, not in the abstract
All this talk of surveillance
you're not being watched, do not be so tense
Our problems can be solved by just one fence
To keep out the substandard immigrants
This republic must be free from sin
Look what we did to the Clinton
There can be no exception
So let's just forget about Richard Nixon
Trust the government
They are always on your side
Trust the government
In them, you can confide
Whether you're trans or a babe or a dude
you might get screwed in the next world feud
So trust the government
Or you'll seem rude!
