Public Cyst

 

The public cyst, from the big bad city,
The one who tells you, how to be pretty
And sell yourself, for the dollar;
Let the general public attach a lead to your collar.


Be exactly what they expect you to be,
Then let them condemn you, after they stopped you being free,
To express yourself, musically or poetically;
For their policy, is to simply make you agree.


They only buy your work, if it’s deemed cool by the magazines,
Which are only deemed cool by word of mouth;
So maybe we should all let out a scream and shout:


No to the government,
Yes to empowerment.


No to taxes,
Yes to investment.


No to prejudice,
Yes to justice.


No to inflation,
Viva la revolution.


Yes to freedom,
Yes to salvation.
