Freeze Up

Album: Operation Ivy Durasi: 2:20
[00:01.06]Empty factories to the east and all our waste
[00:03.00]The shape of things that came show on the broken worker's face
[00:06.19]To the west you'll find a silicon promised land
[00:08.17]Where machines all replace their minds with systematic profit plans
[00:11.18]The course of human progress staggers like a drunk
[00:13.17]It's pace is quick and heavy but it's mind is slow and blunt
[00:16.22]I look for optimism but i just dont know
[00:18.23]Its seeds are planted in a poison place where nothing grows
[00:21.27]Its 1989 stand up and take a look around
[00:24.26]Weathers' bitter tension it seems is sinking down
[00:27.34]Drunk with power
[00:28.26]And fighting one another
[00:30.31]Every hour shows the winter's getting harder
[00:32.36]There's a freeze up, there's a freeze up coming!
[00:34.38]There's a freeze up--freeze up coming!
[00:37.36]There's a freeze up, there's a freeze up coming!
[00:40.35]There's a freeze up coming!
[00:42.43]One nation stands the tallest radiating blinding light
[00:44.44]Plastic and flourescent energy robbing us of sight
[00:47.40]Set in our way- content with our decay
[00:49.48]We wave the flag of freedom as we conquer and invade
[00:52.44]Ever ask yourself where's my place in this hell?
[00:55.59]But no one's there to tell you cuz they dont know that themselves
[00:57.53]The well-rehearsed lines from our elated politicians
[01:00.58]No longer offer solace we can see the self-destruction
[01:02.51]It's 1989 stand up and take a look around
[01:06.66]Weather's bitter tension it seems is sinking down
[01:08.65]Drunk with power and fighting one another
[01:11.66]Every hour shows the winter's getting harder
[01:13.62]There's a freeze up, there's a freeze up coming!
[01:16.76]There's a freeze up--freeze up coming!
[01:18.74]There's a freeze up, there's a freeze up coming!
[01:21.72]There's a freeze up coming!
[01:23.84]Let's go!
[01:34.80]Just one political song, just one political song
[01:37.80]To drop into the list that stretches years and years long
[01:39.81]Just one political song, just one political song
[01:42.92]To drop into the list that stretches years and years long
[01:45.93]Static and division is increasing like a storm
[01:48.99]We are sheltered
[01:50.08]We are forewarned
[01:51.07]Nothing can be changed except ourselves
[01:54.05]Nothing can be changed except ourselves!
[01:56.10]There's a freeze up,
[01:59.13]There's a freeze up coming,
[02:02.14]There's a freeze up,
[02:04.16]There's a freeze up coming,
[02:07.29]There's a freeze up, there's a freeze up coming!
[02:09.28]There's a freeze up--freeze up coming!
[02:12.20]There's a freeze up, there's a freeze up coming!
[02:15.29]There's a freeze up coming!
