"We're gonna rip this motherfucker off, we're gonna tear this motherfucker down..."

The interesting thing about this song is really that the whole thing hinges on the very last verse and the hanging bridge to nowhere at the end:

Now I know what is right...
I'll kill them all if I like.
How much time on this earth?
No one listens to reason,
it's too late,
and I'm ready to fight...


Also, listening to Ministry makes me want to topple the ruling class RIGHT NOW.

That song is pure 1991. I <3 it. Especially the version on In Case You Didn't Feel Like Showing Up.


Now I've got to listen to it.

For some reason, I always associate that song in my mind with Jello Biafra. There's some strange cultural commentary synchronicity thing there.

Didn't he do a spoken word preamble for the live video?

I don't know that I've ever seen the video, which surprises me. Curious.

Doesn't that make you bourgeois by default?

Well No, but since the bourgeois are the new first estate then by extension so are you. Thus your capacity to influence things is theoretically similar to ze fat cats. At the very its least significantly better than the working poor.
