Sometimes things are exactly as they seem Beer goggles on with a full head of steam ****** schemes rising to the top like cream Broken rubber contributes to a new regime Millions of soldiers swimming upstream Each and every one with an existing dream Hoping and wishing on a lucky lottery ticket As the activists line up with signs to picket To make sure none of them will ever die in vein But I have to be honest, only one of you will reign Some of you will drown while going down a drain Some of you will simply end up as a fabric stain Fear not, for the only one who will ever feel pain Shall be the one who meets existence and it's bane They tried their best to have me aborted Hip to their scheme, their plan I thwarted Fit Survival extremes, to which I resorted And into the world I was finally imported It's the same old story, just copied and pasted Plagiaristic pilgrims never caught or lambasted Ahh the victory of life, best thing I've ever tasted So try a sample before it goes stale and is wasted
