about

ONE PARTY SYSTEM

Act One: Chapter 3
— “Oh no, no… you don’t have to totally crush their spirit - that leads to revolt. You only have to give them just enough to make them doubt; to make them all believe they won’t make a difference… Just enough so they stay at home.”

lyrics

My people don’t have to like me – they just have to love me
My people don’t have to like me – they just have to love me
As they fall to their knees in loyalty and worship no other above me
I make sure they know I’m the only choice they’ve got
It never fails

My people don’t want to be free – they just wanna feel free
My people don’t want to be free – they just wanna feel free
I give them so many choices, they reach for a fake dream
Something to chase to the end of their days and keep them working

It’s a one party system - stay at home
It’s a one party system - It’s mine alone
It’s a one party system - so stay at home
It’s a one party system - and it’s mine alone

Multiple choices are fascinating
Makes you feel like you’re participating
I hold you down and right before you drown, I lift you up so you can breathe
Give you just enough to make you doubt so I can make you all believe
It’s a One Party System

I’ll give pigs their angel wings in heaven
I’ll give your hogs a god of their own
I’ll give you a pig in every office
I’ll give you a hog in every home

It’s a One Party System

It’s a one party system - stay at home
It’s a one party system - It’s mine alone
It’s a one party system - so stay at home
It’s a one party system - and it’s mine alone
Pigs get fed - Hogs get slaughtered
