Derelict Olympic lyrics

International social collateral damage
Casualties of our lust for entertainment

This is a prelude to all our futures
This is a tribute to all our failures

Bleeding oracles glow bright on the screen
Just far enough for us all to ignore

This is a prelude to all our futures
This is a tribute to all our failures
We stand as witnesses to our abuses
We fall united in knowing silence


Federal funding of forced relocation
Globalized movement to disperse the poor
An event mass-marketed as worldwide unity
Proves that bankers still rule with impunity

Foreign labor human rights abuses
Invisible on the front page
A class subverted to build coliseums
Disposable serfs as foundations of kingdoms
