From the moment you start breathing
Till the day you close your eyes.
You never stop believing. Believing in their lies.
You spend your lifetime working.
But you can never pay taxes and inflation
That pile up everyday.
And you got so many children
That you just can't support.
There's no one you can turn to,
You feel like you've been caught.
But they tell you there's a heaven,
Waiting just for you and living by the system
Is all you gotta do.
Don't let them control you
Don't let them control you.
Don't let them control you.
Don't let them control you.
They say the reds are coming. There's gonna be a war.
But you've got no idea what you're fighting for.
But you want to kill your brother,
Cause he believes a different thing.
Take away religion and it wouldn't mean a thing.
So come on get together let your love involve you.
No matter what the weather,
Ah! don't let them control you.
Don't let them control you.
Don't let them control you.
Don't let them control you.
Don't let them control you.
