lyrics

Who are the biggest recipients of the institution of public assistance
Who's bled the taxpayers of countless funds since our welfare system's existence
What group has always been the biggest freeloading welfare whore
Our leaders claim single mothers, minorities, immigrants and the poor
So they've cut the funding to all of these groups while real recipients hide
Telling the public that by their actions they've eliminated the free ride
They're going to have to work or starve there's no way left to cheat
No chance of generous government handouts except for the corporate elite
What as given to single mothers didn't compare
With the amount of money given for corporate welfare
When the option is companies or people who are we going to feed
Cut the corporate welfare, no more suffering for their greed
What they've tried to keep a secret and what we need to understand
Is that the welfare system wasn't meant to lend a helping hand
It's just another government safety net to help the rich succeed
Prioritizing aid on a scale of power instead of actual financial need
Are they so concerned with our welfare as they're taking children off it
To give money to corporations so the helping hand can share the profit
While people are cited as statistical scapegoats in an effort to confuse
Every one of us has paid the price for the welfare corporations to use
What was given to minorities
With the amount of money given for corporate welfare
When the option is companies or people who are we going to feed?
Cut the corporate welfare, no more suffering for their greed
Are we as a people as naive that we believed their helping hand sincere
Devouring our social programs they've made their intentions crystal clear
Our survival doesn't compare with the need for corporate dominance
Stealing food from the mouths of people, with an inflated sense of self-importance
The trusting, obedient taxpayers are being fucked by their politicians
Paying for the privilege of being robbed by a system that never listens
If they're genuinely trying to relieve the burden with all the cuts they've made
Then why didn't their cuts include the funds provided for corporate aid
What was given to immigrants didn't compare
With the amount of money given for corporate welfare
When the option is companies or people who are we going to feed?
Cut the corporate welfare, no more suffering for their greed
