about

This is a political track written immediately following the 2004 Election. The title of the track is a play on words in addition to being a reference to Ronald Reagan.

lyrics

Chasing enemies that probably don't even exist,
Brain washing all the children they bred to enlist.
Leaders spin their failures,
And play dress up for success.
Put on a show for those so easily impressed.

Chorus:
You say, I'm free.
Oh but not to disagree.
A malady of apathy worse than ever before.
No end, in sight.
Just another Tuesday night.
With common sense among the casualties of war.

Another chance to reach an all time low.
Feels like I'm living in a 50-State freak show!
Cyanide or Genocide? A Gunshot to the head.
Or leave them all to die inside a sea of red?
