    Lyrics
    THE CORPORATE STATE OF AMERICA
    ă2003 MICHAEL STRASSER

    IN THE CORPORATE STATE OF AMERICA
    EVERYTHING IS FOR SALE
    PEANUTS, POPCORN, POLITICIANS
    JAMS, JESUS, JELLYS AND JAILS

    IT IS THE BEAUTY OF OUR SYSTEM
    NOTHING IS SACRED; NOTHING’S FREE
    NOTHING IS TOO LOW TO STOOP TO
    IF IT INCREASES PROFITIBILITY

    CORPORATE STATE OF AMERICA
    HOME TO THE BOTTOM LINE
    WHERE EVERYONE IS A RESOURCE
    FOR THE CORPORATE STATE TO MINE

    IN THE CORPORATE STATE OF AMERICA
    THERE IS ONLY JUST ONE RULE
    TO EVER AND ALWAYS INCREASE PROFITS
    IT IS THE FREEDOM WE ARE BORN INTO

    OUR SCHOOLS ARE SO EFFICIENT
    THEY DELIVER THE CONSUMER BASE
    SMILING, GREEDY AND STUPID
    INTO THE MARKETPLACE

    CORPORATE STATE OF AMERICA
    WHERE THE BOTTOM LINE IS OUR CREED
    EVERYONE AND ANYTHING IS A RESOURCE
    TO USE AS THE CORPORATE STATE NEEDS

    IN THE CORPORATE STATE OF AMERICA
    OUR ARROGANCE IS OUR PRIDE
    OUR BEAUTY IT IS SKIN DEEP
    WE ARE NEVER SATISFIED

    OUR STRENGTH IS OVERWHELMING
    OUR WEALTH BEYOND COMPARE
    OUR MEDIA IS ALL PERVASIVE
    NEVER HAVE SO MANY BEEN SO UNAWARE

    CORPORATE STATE OF AMERICA
    HOME TO THE BOTTOM LINE
    WHERE EVERYONE IS A RESOURCE
    FOR THE CORPORATE STATE TO MINE

    IN THE CORPORATE STATE OF AMERICA
    THE AIRWAVES ARE PUBLICLY OWNED
    SO YOU ARE FREE TO BUY A RADIO STATION
    AND PROPOGANDIZE THE PUBLIC ON THE PHONE

    OR MAYBE YOU LIKE INFOTAINMENT
    OR AS YOU LIKE TO CALL IT “THE NEWS”
    THERE ARE WIRE SERVICES YOU CAN SUBSCRIBE TO
    TO KEEP THE PUBLIC INFORMED ON ITS VIEW

    CORPORATE STATE OF AMERICA
    HOME TO THE BOTTOM LINE
    WHERE EVERYONE IS A RESOURCE
    FOR THE CORPORATE STATE TO MINE

    IN THE CORPORATE STATE OF AMERICA
    WE ARE ENDOWED WITH LEGAL PERSONHOOD
    SO WE ARE EQUAL TO EVERY INDIVIDUAL
    THIS SERVES THE COPORATE GOOD

    WE HAVE MANY LAW FIRMS ON RETAINER
    AND IN CONGRESS LOBBISTS GALORE
    OUR FORMER CEOs IN GOVERNMENT POSITIONS
    OUR HOME OFFICE IS LOCATED OFF SHORE

    CORPORATE STATE OF AMERICA
    HOME TO THE BOTTOM LINE
    WHERE EVERYONE IS A RESOURCE
    FOR THE CORPORATE STATE TO MINE

    I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO STANDARD
    OF THE CORPORATE STATE OF AMERICA
    AND TO THE PROFITS FOR WHICH IT STANDS
    ONE COMPANY UNDER NO ONE ANYMORE
