We tried assassinations, it's the same
Demonstrations and violence but it's still the same to me
Economic sanctions, it's the same
Tried dragging their names through mud but it's still the same to me

But it's the same, but it's the same
But it's the same, but it's the same

Down here in the condemnations, it's the same
Protected by the laws they make, well, it's still the same to me
What about the world's reaction, it's the same
The only problem is too many factions and it's still the same to me

But it's the same, but it's the same
But it's the same, but it's the same

Where the hell is the population?
All quiet for a generation
Whatever happened to the human race?
Can't you see the enemy here is you?

But it's you, but it's you, but it's you
But it's you, but it's you

In the Tory or the Labor camps, well, it's the same
Republican or Democrat, well, it's still the same to me
Go to Lenin or Marx, it doesn't matter
Starve the people while the rich get fatter
Can't you see they got us where they want us?
Can't you see the enemy here is you?

But it's you
But it's you
But it's you
