Winter Wonderland - Bad Acid Trip

Influencing ideas you have and the lives you make

Measure social position to your neighbor by what you can take

Because opportunity is not equal in our country

The social structure’s built to keep we the people down

You people with your plastic houses

You people with your plastic families

People with your plastic views

You know nothing of what the world offers you to do

Adults don’t believe children can think

Distrust of a next generation

Feel undermined when kids get tools

That were never available to you

I want to believe in my country

I want to believe in my textbooks

I want to believe in my leaders

I want to believe — aarrggh

Used in ways that seem to threaten all your adult values

Tell your child to believe in whitewash, not any cultural history

Teachers and parents don’t believe in the kids

Shit shouldn’t be taught how to think

Fear your history, fear your history

Fear it because it isn’t that wonderful

And if children were to learn the truth

All the horror that went on, they’d lose all respect for society

Anything damaging to this image

It’s got to now be suppressed

Just to protect the country’s future

From themselves and from the truth

I want to believe in my country

I want to believe in my textbooks

I want to believe in my leaders

I want to believe — aarrggh

Pretend we don’t see, why do they lie

Pretend we don’t see, why do they lie

Pretend we don’t see, why do they lie

Pretend we don’t see, why do they lie

Why do they lie

Why do they lie to us
