Lyrics
[Verse 1] It's not the right time to be sober Now the idiots have taken over Spreading like a social cancer, is there an answer? [Verse 2] Mensa membership conceding Tell me why and how are all the stupid people breeding Watson, it's really elementary The industrial revolution Has flipped the bitch on evolution The benevolent and wise are being thwarted, ostracized, what a bummer The world keeps getting dumber Insensitivity is standard and faith is being fancied over reason [Verse 3] Darwin's rolling over in his coffin The fittest are surviving much less often Now everything seems to be reversing, and it's worsening Someone flopped a steamer in the gene pool Now angry mob mentality's no longer the exception, it's the rule And I'm starting to feel a lot like Charlton Heston Stranded on a primate planet Apes and orangutans that ran it to the ground With generals and the armies that obeyed them Followers following fables Philosophies that enable them to rule without regard [Verse 4] There's no point for democracy when ignorance is celebrated Political scientists get the same one vote as some Arkansas inbred Majority rule, don't work in mental institutions Sometimes the smallest softest voice carries the grand biggest solutions [Verse 5] What are we left with? A nation of god-fearing pregnant nationalists Who feel it's their duty to populate the homeland Pass on traditions How to get ahead religions And prosperity via simpleton culture [Outro] The idiots are taking over The idiots are taking over The idiots are taking over The idiots are taking over The idiots are taking over The idiots are taking over The idiots are taking over The idiots are taking over
