"Nonlinearity means that the act of playing the game has a way of changing the rules."

-- James Gleick, Chaos: Making a New Science, 1987



Running the country on stolen time
The Court has decide your vote don't count
Legions of lawyers confusing us more
But apathy won out, that's the final score

Finding ego maniacs in every which camp
Gotta resist! Gotta resist!
Even in places where rights are the norm
Gotta resist! Gotta resist!
I thought I knew something -- it was only a dream
Gotta resist! Gotta resist!
That don't mean I'll sit here and drift on to sleep
Gotta resist! Gotta resist!

Which way to go? Gotta resist!
Which way to go? Gotta resist!
Which way to go? Gotta resist!
Which way to go? Gotta resist!

Did you see something good on TV?
Sharing all viewpoints objectively?
Establishment people repeating their script?
Rewarded for their work against you and me

But one thing's for certain we gotta resist
Gotta resist! Gotta resist!
Against our own urges to sit lazily
Gotta resist! Gotta resist!
For mindless rebellion feeds into their needs
Gotta resist! Gotta resist!
Allowing repression to crush happily
Gotta resist! Gotta resist!

Which way to go? Gotta resist!
Which way to go? Gotta resist!
Which way to go? Gotta resist!
Which way to go? Gotta resist!

If we don't start planning and we don't start doing
The party is over; our freedom our power
If we don't engage all, and I mean all options
We're wasting our time, giving others our power

A foundation freedom
no matter how faulty
better than nothing
strengthens our forces
