The great brain robbery

The Great Brain Robbery

It’s the crime of the century the biggest of its kind
Legal daylight robbery
A tripwire for the blind
They came while you were sleeping you’ve woken up to find
They’ve stolen from your mind

They’ve taken everything left you nothing in return
Their legacy’s a lesson
Alas you’ll never learn
Your rational's derailed by the greedily inclined
They’ve stolen from your mind

They’ve cut your link to happiness fucked you up for life
Left you with no time
For your husband or your wife
Abandoned in a tunnel beneath the daily grind
They’ve stolen from your mind

A dead-end job till death is your consolation prize
No hard earned life of leisure
You're a cog that works and dies
No time to sit and think never able to unwind
They’ve stolen from your mind

This hard-core firm of criminals trample on the meek
Makes the poorest pay the most
For the riches that they seek
Like flies caught in a web with your peers you're all entwined
They’ve stolen from your mind

It’s the crime of the century it’s left you numb and dumb
And convinced it’s for the best
To take the pain that’s yet to come
Brainwashed by the of rhetoric of the robbers of mankind
They’ve stolen from your mind
