There you are!    
Welcome to China    
Here's a key to our city    
Surgical masks for everyone    
     
It's the key to your survival    
So is staying low to the ground    
We must beat our economic rival    
Off to the board room to strategize    
   
All the while Beijing burns our eyes    
No matter the nation    
Corporate Asshole never learns    
   
Listen to helpless infantile cries;    
their delicate tiny lungs    
damaged from exposure    
to the unregulated factory exhaust
    
You keep up with your Joneses    
We keep up with our Fungs      
Who gives a fuck?    
That's the cost    
when business is being done    
 
Profits are priority number one    
   
All the while, Beijing is left to burn    
Corporate Assholes never learn    
Living in proximity of toxicity    
soon to be bones and ashes    
   
more casualties in an industrial sized urn    
     
What are we to do?    
 
Marco    
 
Corporate Assholes    
 
Polo    
   
FUK YU!
