They're taking back
the things that bought off the Working Class
now we're dumbed down enough for control
via our mammalian core.
We're baited with sex,
acquisition and violence
well-seasoned with free-floating fear
of the boogeyman du jour
which channels our energy
into addictive consumption
and the sacrifice of our children
in their rule-the-world wars.
It's a self-reinforcing habit
financed by "cheap" credit pushed at us
by charge card pimps
turning us out to use more
of a drug so addictive
We the People and America
stand ragtime on the corner
like a ten-dollar whore.
Note to non-producing "Upper" Classes:
Payback is a b*tch!
And you just might get
what it is you've been asking us for.
Do the words "American Revolution"
mean anything to you
but a slick pickup truck ad
or not any more?
