Lyrics
Got your own interpretation of these lyrics? Scroll down and share it!

So you say you gotta know why the world goes 'round
And you can't find the truth in the things you've found
And you're scared shitless 'cuz evil abounds,
Come join us.

Well, I heard you were looking for a place to fit in,
Full of adherent people with the same objective,
A family to cling to and call brethren,
Come join us.

All we want to do is change your mind.
All you need to do is close your eyes.

So come join us.
Come join us.
Come join us.

Don't you see the trouble that most people are in
And that they just want you for their own advantage,
But I swear to you we're different from all of them,
Come join us.

I can tell you are lookin' for a way to live
Where truth is determined by consensus,
Full of codified arbitrary directives,
Come join us.

All we want to have is your small mind,
Turn it into one of our own kind.

You can go through life adrift and alone,
Desperate, desolate, on your own,
But we're lookin' for a few more stalwart clones.

So come join us.
Come join us.
Come join us.

We've got spite and dedication as a vehement brew,
The world hates us, well we hate them too,
But you're exempted of course if you
Come join us.

Independent, self-contented, revolutionary,
Intellectual, brave, strong and scholarly,
If you're not one of them, you're us already so
Come join us.
