Pre Order — Vote for Sale
Eeny Meeny Miny Moe
Catch the tiger by the toe
Choices parading loose
Soon you'll have to choose
Causes, reputation — I'll say
Whatever, por favor — please pay
Butter them up, promise the impossible
Cash is better, nothing is more feasible
And you ask, "Where are justice and progress?"
You play victim and demand due process
Can't afford medical bills, suffering hunger
Screaming at social media, ranting like you care
Buy One and Take a Whole Clan!
Reserve it before they sell to another one
Capture...

Good Gop, Bad Gop
If only the GOP was a force for all
ah, what miracles would they have achieved
but they squander stuff and like Satan will fall
They make up ills where there's no call at all
then bawl out loud just to cause some more grief
if only the GOP was a force for all...
Instead of the baggage that they they all haul
like the stuff of their sex-offence-in-chief
cause he squanders stuff and like Satan falls
This trump harps 'bout love but unlike St Paul
it is love of self and the things he thieves
if only the GOP was a...

Badge of Dishonor
Was once a convict
You're a cop who is corrupt
Who will they believe?

So-called Police Intelligence
The leaders of the police force claim that they have an intelligent organization,
But its evil-minded members have not demonstrated real intelligence.
There is no evidence whatsoever that police are truly intelligent people.
Unwise persons are not intelligent; it requires wisdom to be intelligent.
Police are generally arrogant persons, and they lack the ability to reason.
In fact, the police cannot have a sensible conversation with anybody.
The police regard having a conversation with someone as arguing.
Furthermore, they behave as though they...

Shoot Out, At The Not O.K. Coral
I understand
That all the worlds leaders
Want to control
Or kill
Each other
Fine!
Just don't involve
The eight billion citizens
That inhabit this planet
Instead of spending
Billions, upon billions
On weapons of war
And destruction
How about saving
This beautiful planet
Instead of destroying it
Wtf! wtf! wtf!
Wtf! wtf! wtf!
Ad infinitum
How come the whole destiny
Of planet Earth
Is in the hands
Of such a bunch
Of mindless fuckers!
Who seem to have no concept
Of what is...

Big Pharma = Big Corruption
Pharmaceutical companies have a fiduciary duty to their shareholders to maximize profits.
By law, company directors and executives can and should be removed from their positions if they fail to maximize profits.
No one disputes this. This is true for all corporations but in the case of the pharmaceutical industry it leads to the death of nations.
Curing disease is not profitable.
Treating chronic disease is where all of the money is to be made.
Causing chronic disease increases profits further.
Therefore, by law, pharmaceutical...

What Did I Do?
Orlando
woke up naked on a
Sunday and discovered an also
naked Pandora sleeping next to him before
he went into the bathroom and threw
up before asking "What
did I do?"

World of Filth
Humans are destroying mother earth
fertile lands toxic, decaying rebirth
air, land and sea are heavily polluted
deforestation, extinction, trees uprooted
corporations profit, not a care for our well being
asthma, emphysema, difficulties breathing
diseased animals, FDA approves to consume
aquatic life tainted, lead in our blood stream, awaiting doom
man made diseases, a global threat to our demise
extinction is certain, time to revolt, time to rise
fertile lands toxic, decaying rebirth
air, land and sea are heavily polluted
deforestation, extinction, trees uprooted
corporations profit, not a care for our well being
asthma, emphysema, difficulties breathing
diseased animals, FDA approves to consume
aquatic life tainted, lead in our blood stream, awaiting doom
man made diseases, a global threat to our demise
extinction is certain, time to revolt, time to rise

don’t understand what’s happening
moving closer to war is all about picking sides
if trump is president again and supports russia against ukraine
they’ll probably win
why the f*ck would you elect him?
