Orator, fiction-teller, great commander in chief; So noble your quest of Re-election, Presenting pretty political poetry But we don’t mind Lie to me As you lead me Oh, noble politician, Credibility only expected in consumer ability Priorities Great Chess Player Moving pawns, perpetual playing Limitless supply of sacrifices Die for your country, he says, That’s patriotism! The most patriotic of them all I shall, hold down the fort On my, Noble quest of forming fictitious fantasies American supremacy, idiocracy Stand beside her, and guide her, through the night till she reaches he target on sight Responsibility? Don’t be silly Scapegoat culture is the reality Get in line for the American Dream, That’s it, fall in line, On the horizon Ill wait, I’ve got Verizon Do you hear me now? Hook me in, turn me off, drug me up and let me down I’m numb anyway Its all in the promotion Mass manipulation, solicitation Don’t worry we can fix you, quick fix, step right up Too fat? Too fast? Too slow” Throw these back – now your on a right track Tune in-turn off- tranquilized Text, tweet, technology Whatever you do Just Don’t Think (rise for the pledge)
