so you wear the vestments of ill-gotten legacy
bankrolled by CEOs, endowed by Christian destiny
give us empty words and flags to rally round
but the rest of it don't seem to trickle down to

streets of hopeless faces, mortgaged and foreclosed
downsized to part-time jobs, foresaken by the HMOs
sucking up the welfare when there's war to subsidize
and they won't just go away if you ask nice

chorus
kill the poor, kill the poor, put a cap right in their brain
ain't no room in Utopia for evidence it ain't
arm the VPs, arm the soccer moms, declare your holy war
before the meek claim our inheritance you better kill the poor

ship our jobs to lands of despots and despair
repurpose livelihoods for merest pennies on the share
they ask for more, refer em to the green berets
there's always more room in the mass graves

repave our cities as consumerist plantations
turn the cops into a martial force of occupation
mall of america, pristine and sterilized
And woe to those who can't afford the price

chorus
kill the poor, kill the poor, put a cap right in their brain
ain't no room in Utopia for evidence it ain't
arm the VPs, arm the soccer moms, declare your holy war
before the meek claim our inheritance you better kill the poor
