State Of The Union

I was talking 'bout the state of the union

How there's no one now in power thinking of me

I was saying how we ought to try to fix it

Find a leader who is not afraid to be



Then a voice came out of the darkness

Saying "tear the system down"

Tear it down



I was thinking 'bout how that was very crazy

And i tried to find a way to tell him so

But when i did i used a word that was quite nasty

How the policeman heard me man i'll never know



Then a voice came out of the darkness

Saying "tear the system down"

Tear it down; down to the ground



I was wrestled of to one side of the theater

And they said i'd have to go right to jail

They don't permit coarse language in their city

But they did accept a large amount of bail



Then a voice came out of the darkness

Saying "tear the system down"

Tear it down; down to the ground
