Rape and murder, accidents
Sex and violence, prejudice
War deploying idiots
Telling lies with confidence
Politicians, terrorists
Power hungry governments
Blame it on the president
Nuclear weapons still exist

Hungry kids, no medicine
But crack, cocaine and heroin
High speed chases on again
To scare and entertain your brain
Ignore the homeless, blame the poor
All because you got yours
No understanding in the end
Vicious cycle over again

Mayhem and murder
Mayhem and murder
Mayhem and murder

The media, the shopping malls
Consuming victims, one and all
Picking targets, exploiting them
This is called American
Ignorant society
Has had its dose (of) reality
Fading glory I can see
Will have us questioning authority
Mayhem and murder
Mayhem and murder
Mayhem and murder
