[ NaPo 2017 ] While Beijing Burns

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?

Corporate Assholes

FUK YU!
