What Did It Get You?

from Rageonomics by Joe Messina

/

about

A hate letter to Boomers, the government, and the police.

lyrics

What did it get you?
Following all the rules
What did it get you
Worked your whole life to watch your
Children suffer too

What did it get you?
You took what they gave you
What did it get you
To get straight A’s in fucking
Corporate wage slave school

You still believe the lies
You don’t believe what’s
In front of your eyes
So don’t cry to me
When it dies

What did it get you?
They said it was too soon
What did it get you
To wait your turn
Like everybody told you to

But hey, they got me too
Big fat I-O-Fuck-U
Hey they got me too
Your check’s in the mail
Sent straight up your fuckin’ ass

You still believe the lies
You don’t believe what’s
In front of your eyes
So don’t cry to me
When it dies

So where does that leave you?
Dressed up in white and blue
Where does that leave you?
You might as well wear a white hood on your head too

Cause you don’t have me fooled
The people that you screwed
You don’t have me fooled
The mask is off now that we know the awful truth

You still believe the lies
You don’t believe what’s
In front of your eyes
So don’t cry to me
I don’t care, you see
Leave me be
Don’t want any of what you’re selling at all

What did it get you?
(What did it get you?)
What did it get you?
(What did it get you?)
What did it get you?
(What did it get you?)
What did it get you?
(What did it get you?)
What did it get you?

Fuckin' nothing
