letra de is this the life we really want?* - roger waters

[intro: donald trump]
so as an example you’re cnn. i mean it’s story, after story, after story is bad. i won. i won. and the other thing, chaos. there’s zero chaos. we are running- this is a fine-tuned machine

[verse 1: roger waters]
the goose has gotten fat
on caviar and fancy bars
and subprime homes
and broken homes
is this the life, the holy grail?
it’s not enough that we succeed
we still need others to fail

[verse 2: roger waters]
fear, fear drives the mills of modern man
fear keeps us all in line
fear of all those foreigners
fear of all their crimes
is this the life we really want?
it surely must be so

[verse 3: roger waters]
and every time a student is run over by a tank
and every time a pirate’s dog is forced to walk the plank

clerics, truckers, cleaning ladies
ants – maybe not ants

or crawling across window seals in search of open treacle tins
so, like the ants, are we just dumb
is that why we don’t feel or see?
or are we all just numbed out on reality tv

[verse 5: roger waters]
so, every time the curtain falls
every time the curtain falls on some forgotten life
it is because we all stood by, silent and indifferent
