lyrics

This game is rigged and you people are brutes
some slight of hand golden parachutes
oh, no
I wanna quit and go home
You shook our hand as we agreed on the rules
pulled out the rug and played us for fools
so I'm not alone
in saying "let's all go home"
Just one more flawless victory and then we'll go home.

Our lives are cheap and we're paying the price
a dollar bill's not a flotation device
cue the sad trombone
town is drowning in subprime loans
Here's our degree, here's a lifetime of debt
you forged our name on a contract that's set in unyielding stone
a generation disowned
So we'll crush or convert all our enemies
Bleed dry and break this kleptocracy
and then we'll go home.

I wanna quit and go home.
I wanna quit and go home.
Fundamentally overhaul society
and then we'll go home.

The greatest crime the devil did share
was teaching thieves to say "Life's not fair"
stealing from a throne
rest of us prostrate or prone
The system failed but it's all we've got
only game in town, take a shot
though the birds have flown
keep to yourself any stifled groans
So let's build a brand new humanity
a balanced, just society
and then we'll go home.

I wanna quit and go home!
I wanna quit and go home!
Bring each citizen of Earth an epiphany
and then we'll go home!

But I CAN'T QUIT
because these HYPOCRITES
are so FULL OF SHIT
a costly counterfeit
So I'll fail and use
these broken rules

This game is rigged and you people are brutes
but i'll persist till you lose

I wanna quit and go home!
I wanna quit and go home!
Just one more flawless victory
Crush or convert all our enemies
Build a balanced, shining society
and then we'll go home!

Countless Thousands Glendale, California

Take a show choir reject who was never cool enough for punk rock, throw him a rockabilly axe and have him cash in on all the poetry classes. Take an east coast jazz legend and tell him to lay off the weirder chords and step up the distortion. Take a cosplay nerd and give him +2 Charisma, +5 Vocalwork and +5 Shreddage. Mix well and serve immediately for total badassery. ... more
