Damned of Ya Do, Damned if Ya Don`t

culturally impoverished
middle-class suburbanites
the evolution �
of this particular civilization
no longer recognizes �
differences.........
has stripped away �
pure ethnic beauty
along with reasons to fight
�
either way
we dearly pay
�
remain isolated
prohibit contact �
outside the tribe
hold true
to traditions
one-of-a-kind
sacred rites
art, music, drama,
of singularity divine
to preserve �
pure iconic style
ya gotta "sieg hiel"
�
"cant we all just get along"?
�
sure we can
just water down the songs
feel generic pop beats
pounding out of cars
plowing down
international streets
mongrelocity
easily adhered �
when mass media �
is king
boy that Macarena �
was sure a hell of a thing
shake hands with
Mayor McCheese
at Mickey-Ds, Peking
oh yeah
get them Eskimos �
in a frenzy
so they`ll
cap each other`s �
ice cold asses
over bone and blubber �
bling
