They left the good news of their Lord For bad news gone right overboard The gospel of austerity Means all for me and none for thee The masters say this is the way After a crash to smash the poor The more according to Ayn Rand Reminding us and binding us Behind them so that we may see Again as always now as then But mind you they are finding us Steady and ready for our say We would like to ask some questions The makers take no suggestions Though up above from down below (They are afraid of us you know Actually who understand That they are doomed factually Only a matter of time and When yesterday then not today) Let austerity remind us How that was then and this is now And let us put them behind us Let it be now not then again Now that we know what we must do To share is socialism to Makers taking from me and you With their false gospel coming true Old impotents swing rubber swords Bring nightmares sing like overlords But I know now and you do too The time has come to overcome Weighed in the balance found wanting The masters of the all for some Succumb to their nightmare haunting The right is wrong but we are strong All that is left is to break through Rise up and sweep them all away In the dustbin of history Just what we must do to be free Now then has been and this is how Tomorrow comes for yesterday We understand that this is war Our freedom up to you and me Who know what we are fighting for Though they are then so we are now Left to be right how we must fight Before today becomes tonight The clash of time the time to smash The gospel of austerity +Steven Curtis Lance Copyright MMXIII
