Questionnaire from Intervention by Exit Angles

from the day we’re born
we’re set apart from the rest
they preach their competition
let’s see who pass the test
who pledge the most allegiance
who shows a willingness
to step on anyone
that seems to pose a threat
(to their personal interest)

this ain't no questionnaire
it’s a statement
your acceptance is denied
i’ve seen your actions here
history shows it clear
my motivation is annihilation

the contradiction was clear
tactics of shame and fear
they ask, “which side are you on?”
winners here, losers over there
said i’m a dropout, a bum
i’ll never rise to the top (like scum)
rather be a flavor in the soup
don't need to claim that i'm an image and a name

this ain't no questionnaire
it’s a statement
your acceptance is denied
i’ve seen your actions here
history shows it clear
my motivation is annihilation

innocence is castigated by authority
better fall in line
the guilty have declined
to comment on their crime
except their collar’s white
so it is fine

this ain't no questionnaire
it’s a statement
your acceptance is denied
i’ve seen your actions here
history shows it clear
my motivation is annihilation
