Death of Democracy

People, did you hear about the fortune of the Greeks?
The Trojan horse won the war and snatched the Golden Fleece
There were women screaming, soldiers breaking down the door
Even Icarus was flapping to escape the Minotaur
(La la la la la la)
It happened suddenly
Athens fell into the sea
(La la la la la la)
A dream had ceased to be
The death of democracy
Well you can slave away all life and never pay it back
'Cause money is the law so get your hands behind your back
You don't need to know what we have put upon your plate
And you don't need no Oracle to recognize your fate
(La la la la la la)
It happened suddenly
Athens fell into the sea
(La la la la la la)
A dream had ceased to be
The death of democracy
Oh, ah
300 men of Sparta fought with sandals on their feet
Now they're selling sneakers on the corner of the street
It's a joke that isn't funny, it's a room without a door
And it's only printed money...so just go print some more
(La la la la la la)
The truth was pain to see
We all knew it
(La la la la la la)
Athens fell into the sea
I guess we blew it
(La la la la la la)
The dream had ceased to be
The death of democracy
(Yeah!)
(La la la la la la)
Yeah, the truth was clear to see
Oh, that blew (?) that blew (?)
(La la la la la la)
Oh, the dream that ceased to be
The death of democracy
