We’re all tired of this
The braggadocious actors in our theater
The false flag notions of progress
The boiling oceans of hate and dissent
A churning, burning cauldron of despair
Their words constantly clogging the air
Screaming “IT WASN’T FAIR!”
When we all know that there is no other side
They play us off each other
To hide the reality
Their competition is a fallacy
There is only one party
The monied think tankers and bankers
Tinkering constantly to squeeze one last ounce of blood from us
Employing us against our will
Checking ourselves out in the self-checkout
Posting more and more
Just for one more ounce of clout
Shouting at each other in our rags and rigs
With all the doodads and switches
While they ship away all of our riches
Who is to blame
When we get smacked with the boomerang
