lyrics

The eagle consumes at will
The apex predator
The beaver fells and dams
Ignorant of the flood
Ignorance that leads to
Confused patriot
Staring dumbfoundedly
In chains on scorched earth

Slash and burn
Industry
Slash and burn
Can't believe
Face the fact that evil
Has taken over
Everything we love
They've taken over

The eagle patrols above
The beaver dams below
Violence is used to maintain
Brutal strict control
Of petty resources
Confused Patriot
Staring dumbfoundedly
In chains on scorched earth

Slash and burn
Patriot excuse
Slash and burn
Look past the flag
Face the fact that evil
Has taken over
Taken over
They've taken over

I can see the forest for the trees
There's no fucking forest without trees
Our trail marches steep and to the right
The empires forest burns and bleeds

I can see the forest for the tress
There's no fucking forest without trees
The fascist forest only feeds the leaves
The empires forest burns and bleeds

Slash and Burn
Depleted
Slash and Burn
Everything
Face the fact that evil
Has taken over
Everything you see
Is taken over
