Old Regime – Bad Religion – letras

Privilege from birth, abhorrence of work, obsessed with sovereigntyAristocrats claim an exemption from the standards of DemocracyA secret antipathy to justice and equalityAnd a tightly constrained definition of who is freeOld Regime, smoke of historyLiberty still wafting in the breezeThe new aristocracy just smells like the Old RegimeThey think that they can alter and sway which version of freedom reignsIf everything is subjective then what good is truth anyway?A plutocratic strategy or technocrat conspiracyOr a vision of utopia that only the besotten can see?Old Regime, smoke of historyLiberty still wafting in the breezeThe new aristocracy just smells like the Old RegimeAn unabated tendency to tyranny is still in placeAnd the ancient nobility’s complexion differs just in nameOld Regime, smoke of historyLiberty still wafting in the breezeA new season dawns with ominous prophecyYeah the new aristocracy just smells like the Old Regime
