Description: "Brother" is used ironically in this misanthropic rant. The term was commonly used amongst hippies and deadheads in the mid 1990's such as "Hey, brother bear, miracle a ticket?" Underneath, the civility there was a darkness that by it's suppression hid a certain hypocrisy.

lyrics

Brother you scratch and claw your way out of a hole whose walls you think are your fellow man. Dog eat dog, eat dog, eat dog. You scratch and claw but the walls are you. Law of the land; law upon law, upon law, upon law. Killing for crime, killing for killing were the good old days. Can’t overcome our prejudices. Need the state to impose social order. Doomed to suffer by the hand of our own ignorance. The walls keep closing in every day. Choking on our own good intentions. Our faith in a system which systematically whittles our freedoms away one by one, by one, by one; law by law, by law, by law, by law.
