[Verse 1] Our world was baptized in seas of nuclear fire, And only a few survivors rose from the pyre Flags and border maps, governments and income tax, all incinerated, but even then, man's lust for power was still all inflated, So who will be the leader, whose flag will be on our armbands? Who rules, who rules, who really rules the wastelands? [Verse 2] "I rule here!" The raider said, "I'm the mightiest warmonger! My gang is the meanest, the most dangerous, has the most hunger! All your little camps and settlements will be razed, And whoever we leave alive will be enslaved!" Or you could… [Chorus] Come ride with us, ride with the Foxdust, All we have for your masters is disgust, Answer the question no one understands! Who rules, who rules the wastelands? [Verse 3] "I rule here!", the general said, tapping the badges on his chest, "I declare martial law, here is your rifle and your bulletproof vest. You're all drafted, you can't just stand here, hands in pockets, Now go and prepare my silos for another round of nuclear rockets." [Chorus] Come ride with us, ride with the Foxdust, All we have for your masters is disgust, Answer the question no one understands! Who rules, who rules the wastelands? [Verse 4] "God rules here!" the Zealots said, selling their rule as heavenly chore, "Sodom and Gomorrah, the Flood, and now a whole nuclear war! Mass destruction is just how god shows his eternal love, Pray, obey, pay your tithe he might dial it back to a dove" [Modified Chorus] Come ride with us, ride with the Foxdust, All we have for your gods is mistrust, Answer the question no one understands! Who rules, who rules the wastelands? [Verse 6] "I rule here!" said every Khan, every Tyrant, every self proclaimed new President, "Just look at my soldiers, my motor pool, my well stocked weapon tent! Give me control, be a part of something bigger than yourself, And I will teach you to fear and hate everyone else!" [Verse 7] "No!" said the Foxdust, as they got ready to brawl, "All your leaders and their greed seem so small! As long as we still can make fists of our hands, We're making sure NO ONE rules the wastelands" [Outro] Come, ride with us, ride with the Foxdust, All your masters and gods seem just unjust! Add your voice to ours so they will understand, No one, really no one, rules the wasteland!
