[Verse 1] Pick a tribe, pick a team, pick a side to scream They hand you a flag so you don't see the scheme "They" took everything, that's what you're told Meanwhile they all shook hands and split the gold [Chorus] Us! Them! Us! Them! — fighting in the street While the same five families eat You're so busy hating *them* You never checked who's robbing you again [Verse 2] He screams for the old ways, she screams for the new Meanwhile the contracts get signed by a chosen few Every leader needs an enemy to name So you don't notice the rules are rigged the same [Bridge, spoken, fast] "Hate is cheaper than asking why" "Power don't care which anthem you cry" "The border don't care who's guarding it" "The bank account don't either" [Chorus repeat, gang vocals] Us! Them! Us! Them! — fighting in the street While the same five families eat [Outro (just yelled)] WAKE UP — WAKE UP — WAKE UP — THE WAR IS FAKE THE WAR IS FAKE THE WAR IS FAKE — BUT THE THEFT — IS REAL
