Panem et Circenses

歌詞

All we've done is provide them With food and mindless entertainment; They easily renounced their liberty. Hence deprived of will of their own, Lobotomised, forced into docility, They were turned into obsequious slaves. We've tacitly accepted this preposterous situation In the name of that accursed social cohesion Now they will tolerate no subversion Retaliation is out, of the question. They've insidiously concealed the truth Ostensibly in the cause of Equality: We've been coaxed into lethal apathy, Desperately clinging to an abject safety. Loathing our predicament in this inimical world, Stultified, we are unable to regain our blighted hopes. We've tacitly accepted this preposterous situation In the name of that accursed social cohesion Now they will tolerate no subversion Retaliation is out, of the question.
