Our politicians preach hope While our nation struggles to cope Stacking woman into binders Deaf to all but hired reminders Treaties & agreements for peace While riots rage on in Greece Told that we are doing just fine As more join the food stamp line American banks engorged with greed Planting in free soil a debt ridden seed The next Great Depression has already begun & It matters not which candidate has won With our cancer ridden healthcare Attempts like duc-tape to repair Voting to raise the debt ceiling An American father kneeling Praying to God to find a job While outside “we the people” form a mob The 99% chanting in the streets Stubborn legislatures don’t budge from seats C-span listens to recipes from cookbooks A dull murmur of televised crooks Unemployment continues to rise Prophets sure of the world’s demise

2012- The World's Already Ended
Our politicians preach hope While our nation struggles to cope Stacking woman into binders Deaf to all but hired reminders Treaties & agreements for peace While riots rage on in Greece Told that we are doing just fine As more join the food stamp line American banks engorged with greed Planting in free soil a debt ridden seed The next Great Depression has already begun & It matters not which candidate has won With our cancer ridden healthcare Attempts like duc-tape to repair Voting to raise the debt ceiling An American father kneeling Praying to God to find a job While outside “we the people” form a mob The 99% chanting in the streets Stubborn legislatures don’t budge from seats C-span listens to recipes from cookbooks A dull murmur of televised crooks Unemployment continues to rise Prophets sure of the world’s demise
