I am a common man, I use common words.
This is no manifesto, this is no propaganda.
(hey!)
95% of the world is third world.
Take a look around, you might not like what you see.
Yeah we're all comfortably living in a privileged society
Open up your mind and think outside of the box,
Yeah, it's just a case of ignorance and benevolence.
America's a privileged society.
When it comes to other countries, we don't see the cultural beauty.
We see famine, death, disease, poverty and war
which almost always involves US military.
That is what most US citizens know about other countries,
is what they see on CNN and other television programming.
And yet here in our own country, unemployment is at an all-time high,
and thousands of businesses have gone bankrupt.
Just look around, how many buildings do you see empty and policed?
and here in America, disease, poverty and famine DO exist.
And it's not just in our ghettos anymore,
it's now become a struggle for the middle-class to survive.
Maybe if the poor in America had something for corporations
and our government to profit off of (like oil),
Maybe then they would take an interest in problems here in America,
or maybe they would just bomb us...
The Suicide Machines were an American punk rock band formed in Detroit, Michigan, in March 1991 and disbanded in May 2006. During their career, they released six studio albums for Hollywood Records and Side One Dummy Records. Although they experienced several lineup changes over the years, founding members Jason Navarro and Dan Lukacinsky remained consistent fixtures. The band's musical style initially blended elements of punk rock, ska, and hardcore into a genre popularly known as ska punk or "ska-core", which characterized their first two albums. In the middle of their career, they shifted gears, moving away from this sound and producing two albums with a heavy pop rock influence. Their final two albums moved back towards their mid-1990s style, bringing back heavy ska punk and hardcore elements. Some of their most representative songs include "New Age Vampire", "Dance Dance Revolution" and "The Ballad of the Brokenhearted".
