The Poor Common Man
The main reason the poor common man
has had to carry such a heavy burden
since the destruction of earth began
the elite have a lot of hungry dogs
they have to feed and keep up
it has been the poor common man
who has paid for it all...for everything
the elite and their hungry dogs
can and have gobbled up...somehow
it has always been set up and working
in such a way that if or when
the poor common man ever balks...he
will be the first to perish and he knows it
the elite keep him feeling it coming
