Break it down, society’s failed us
Nothing there but corruption and injustice
Shepherd leads his flock to greener pasture
In a brave new world

Drink the cool aid bow to the will of jim jones
And you’re still going to die anyway
Cannot bear to think that you’ll find new life
Without him and what he lived
The cool aid
Drink the cool aid follow his madness
Through the jungle now we’ve all gone away

Breaking down, shepherd has failed us
Brutal jungle and brutal injustice
Clearly heading to impending disaster
Tragically absurd

Shoot them down, now that they’ve seen us
Can’t let them talk or we’ll suffer justice
Congressmen dead what did we ask for
A false messiah’s curse

Drink the cool aid bow to the will of jim jones
And you’re still going to die anyway
Cannot bear to think that you’ll find new life
Without him and what he lived
The cool aid
Drink the cool aid follow his madness
Through the jungle now we’ve all gone away
