Ouroboros

clown world has hit the ground running

fueled by systematical petty outrage amplification

straight past the tipping point

without nary a thought…nothing

the serpent will gorge

the serpent will feed

juggling schools and painted fools

whipped cream on a paper plate rules

feel this heat before it finally cools

useful idiots are undercover tools

the serpent will gorge

the serpent will feed

the vocal were gagged

labelled, threatened and outed

a quick sneaky cattle prod jab

for those up the back who shouted

the serpent will gorge

the serpent will feed

the secret police have worked themselves thin

back to back shifts and double time

gotta find out who hurt those feelings

gotta solve another victimless thought crime

the serpent will gorge

the serpent will feed

give them more rope

supply them more dope

take away all their hope

but turn the enemy to soap

the serpent will gorge

the serpent will feed

start a war whenever you want

just fly your planes into towers

a patch on every undesirable sleeve

cause the ovens come after the showers

the serpent will gorge

the serpent will feed

mutilate the young and voiceless

scar their bodies mould their thought

only a school with lessons so cruel

would hurt students with what they are taught

the serpent will gorge

the serpent will feed

there will be no telling of tales reporting of facts

unless they’ve been pre-approved and vetted

a runaway lie will stick in your eye

unless it’s been specially netted

the serpent has gorged

yet the serpent still feeds
