Cookie Cutter Culture

This is a cookie cutter culture
We all must think the same
If you're outside the PC box
Talking heads call you insane

You better hold all their values
Zombie minds.. must be lead 
Christians are old fashioned
Everyone knows, God is dead

There are no absolutes today
What counts are opinion polls
Kiss the ring of our great king
Or you might end up in a hole

Blinded by group arrogance
In ignorance we all pledge
To follow cultural relevance
As we step closer to the ledge

I'm about to go James Dean
A rebel who can think and feel
Quit trying to program me
Your perfect utopia isn't real
