Lyrics:
[Intro] One, two, three! [Verse 1] Privilege from birth, abhorrence of work, obsessed with sovereignty Aristocrats claim an exemption from the standards of democracy A secret antipathy to justice and equality And a tightly constrained definition of who is free [Chorus] Old regime, smoke of history Liberty still wafting in the breeze The new aristocracy just smells like the old regime [Verse 2] They think that they can alter and sway which version of freedom reigns If everything is subjective then what good is truth anyway? A plutocratic strategy or technocrat conspiracy Or a vision of utopia that only the besotten can see? [Chorus] Old regime, smoke of history Liberty still wafting in the breeze The new aristocracy just smells like the old regime [Guitar solo] [Bridge] An unabated tendency to tyranny is still in place And the ancient nobility's complexion differs just in name [Chorus] Old regime, smoke of history Liberty still wafting in the breeze A new season dawns with ominous prophecy Yeah, the new aristocracy just smells like the old regime
