Public Disservice Lyrics


We can fabricate a candidate

A covert way to manipulate the head of state

You could be our new recruit, a patsy in a suit

The final attribute to make our power absolute

We’ll hire the pundits to endorse our puppet

And play this marionette like a string quartet

Mingle with the elite, sit in the hot seat

You can have a new career in deceit

A lapel flag pin and a dirty grin

You’re almost certainly guaranteed to win

Just kiss some babies, press some flesh

Start your career in public disservice

Once you’re in it’s time to begin

We’ll fill your cabinet with our businessmen

Launch the rockets, increase our profits

Watch the money roll in from the oval office

You’ll pass our diatribe as your policy

Commit warcrimes periodically

Pander public fear and we’ll be the profiteer

Fight an endless war that we engineer

There’s nothing that we can’t handle

Unless, of course, you start a public scandal

Then you’re useless, but you’ve served your purpose

During your career in public disservice

Public disservice - Don’t forget to lock your office

Protect and serve us - And you can line your pockets

Serve no purpose - Just smile when you make a promise

You’re fucking worthless
