A flatulent king sits Slouching, scratching, Congealing to his throne of gold. His army of a billion men Are clad in ****** bibs And grins. Equipped with hate And hollow eyes They stand redily assembled.   The king is a miser. His face is a lie. His motives are equally clear. Royal subjects within the walls Respect only of weakness and fear. They are taxed and harassed. For knowledge they're knived. The wisest of Wiseman Are forced to take bribes. Their children are taken and Hidden away At the mechanized dawn That announces each day To learn to be Ruthless and cruel. To take advantage of fools. Greed and malice are tools to be used At their s and m brainwashing schools. So their eyes turn jade And their words turn black As they cut up their hands Stabbing themselves in the back. They're just being taught How to buy and be bought. To serve the king; A gear in his machine. The ones who concede, Buy into the greed But their weakening teeth snap! One by one As they go round the vicious circle. So they end up Defunct, Sunken eyed. They dangle their Dot spangled Hands at their sides. And although they loose, Somehow they win. They end up running The world we live in.
