Water down the facts, dummy down the music
Take away our freedom before we can abuse it
Tell me what to think, if I had a brain I'd use it
How much can you swallow? Depends on how you chew it

Look both ways before you start to crawl
It's okay, inequality for all

I refuse to be a part of your idiocracy
They'll find our city's ashes beneath the rising sea
And one day they'll look back and wonder how it came to be
'Cause we replaced reality with idiocracy

Open up a vein so they can draw off it
They'll take anything as long as there's a profit
Give them all you have, but never have a damn doubt
When you need their help, they'll tell you it's a handout

Don't be afraid, the crooks are here to save the day
It's okay, the less you know the more they're paid

I refuse to be a part of your idiocracy
They'll find our city's ashes beneath the rising sea
And one day they'll look back and wonder how it came to be
'Cause we replaced reality with idiocracy

This madness we can stop it
It's time to culture shock it
This cult of deception
Just needs a disconnection

I refuse to be a part of your idiocracy
They'll find our city's ashes beneath the rising sea
And one day they'll look back and wonder how it came to be
'Cause we replaced reality with idiocracy
'Cause we replaced reality with idiocracy
