[Intro]
Living in the wasteland of the free

[Verse 1]
We've got preachers dealing in politics and diamond mines
And their speech is growing increasingly unkind
And they say they are Christ's disciples
But they don't look like Jesus to me
It feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

[Verse 2]
We got politicians running races on corporate cash
Now don't tell me they don't turn around and kiss them peoples' ass
You may call me old-fashioned
But that don't fit my picture of a true democracy
And it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

[Verse 3]
We got CEO's making two hundred times the workers' pay
But they'll fight like hell against raising the minimum wage
If you don't like it, mister, they'll ship your job
To some third-world country across the sea
And it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

[Chorus]
Living in the wasteland of the free
Where the poor have now become the enemy
'Let's blame our troubles on the weak ones'
Sounds like some kind of Hitler remedy
Living in the wasteland of the free
