Текст песни Down the Rabbit Hole - Tim Snider

We all want to help one another, human beings are like that
We want to live by each other's happiness, not by each other's misery
We don't want to hate and despise one another
And this world has room for everyone, and the good Earth is rich

But we have lost the way
Greed has poisoned men's souls
Has barricaded the world with hate
Has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed
We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in
Machinery that gives us abundance has left us in want
Our knowledge has made us cynical
Our cleverness, hard and unkind
We think too much, and feel too little
More than machinery, we need humanity
The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together
The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world
Millions of despairing men, women, and little children
Victims of a system that makes men torture
And imprison innocent people

Do not despair
The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed
The bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress
Don't give yourselves to brutes
Men who despise you, enslave you, who regiment your lives
Tell you what to do, what to think, and what to feel!
Who drill you, diet you
Treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder
Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men
Machine men with machine minds and machine hearts!
You are not machines!
You are not cattle!

Don't fight for slavery!
Fight for liberty!
You, the people have the power
The power to create machines
The power to create happiness!
You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful
Now let us fight to fulfill that promise!
Let us fight to free the world
To do away with national barriers
To do away with greed, with hate, and intolerance
Let us fight for a world of reason
A world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness
In the name of democracy, let us all unite
