Invisible Government Lyrics

Do you know the world is run by big corporations
don't be a fool don't take a part in the ignorance
that's sweeping the nation don't let rich men make
the rules will you

[Chorus:]
Bow down to the invisible government fuck
that they're capitalist scum [2x]

Behind the scenes things get done that you an I
could never believe atop the world they're pulling
strings a puppet I'll never be used to satisfy their
greed I won't

[Chorus 4x]

Capitalist scum Fuck Off! [3x]

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song is pretty straight forward really. Not much needed to be said. Though, I believe Dan says

"our tax dollars are going to support a war that I and most of America don't want yet I can't even afford decent health care for my family...hmm.."

..all in about 3 seconds. It might be Jay saying it though..I don't know, it sounds more like Dan to me. In any case, that's what is said as far as I can make out after several extremely loud repeated listens to that spoken excerpt of the song. Just thought I'd add this since I hadn't seen it posted on any other site, and of all sites that should have all the lyrics and the <i>right</i> lyrics, this site should be it.
