Buttons On the Remote
They put us all in the institution
And threw away the key
They say there's no more constitution
And freedom isn't free
The voting machines have infections
They won't tabulate the votes
Russia's running the election
With the buttons on their remote
The senate does nothing at all
To stop the runaway train
The writing's on the wall
Can you feel the pain
When the smoke has cleared
And all the babes stop crying
It will seem so weird
To know that freedom's dying
