 Rate Freeze Up
Artist : Operation ivy
Song : Freeze up
Empty factories to the east and all our waste,
The shape of things that came shows on the broken
worker's face.
To the west you'll find our silicon promised land
where machines
relace our minds for systematic profit plans.
The course of human progress staggers like a
drunk-
Its steps are quick and heavy and its mind is
slow and blunt.
I look for optimism but I just don't know.
Its seeds are planned in a poison place where
nothing grows.
It's 1989 stand up and take a look around
Weather's bitter tension it seems is sinking
down.
Drunk with power and fighting one another every
hour
Shows the winter getting harder.
There's a freeze up coming.
One nation stands the tallest radiating blinding
light,
Plastic and flourescent energy robbing us of
sight-
Set in our way, content with our decay,
We wave the flag of freedom as we conquer and
invade-
Ever ask yourself where's my place in this hell?
But no one's there to tell you 'cause they don't
know themselves
The well rehearsed lines from our elated
politicians
No longer offer solace, we can see the self
destruction
(Chorus)
Just one political song to drop into the list
this is years and years long!
