A
Failed System (64)
1
Every
time a dairy farmer blows his nose
That’s
another poisoned river I suppose
Not
to mention the nitrates heading
for
The
pond
rapidly
dying
just
next
door
“Follow
me”
cries the emperor
of
greed
“Competition
is the
supreme virtue
I
plead”
Autocracy
and Plutocracy
Unite
in a
liberal democracy
Where
pollution and collusion are abound
While
the poor are left hanging around
Or
else mating at a camping ground
Hating
to miss out on what is free

Politicians
need a
great deal of support
To
avoid becoming beaten and
distraught
Advertising
is something
they all
embrace
Since
election time is like a
marathon
race
It
takes money to promote yourself and win
Now
that truth has been surpassed by a grin
Autocracy
and Plutocracy
Unite
in a
liberal democracy
Where
pollution and collusion are abound
While
the poor are left hanging around
Or
else mating at a camping ground
Hating
to miss out on what is free

Well
the two end
up
together soon
enough
With
the
winners winning
out by being
tough
So
the farmers and vote catchers win the race
While
Nature
and the
poor are put in their place
Since
the dollar sits
on some tremendous throne
With
its
mindset
clearly
borrowed from Al
Capone
Autocracy
and Plutocracy
Unite
in a
liberal democracy
Where
pollution and collusion are abound
While
the poor are left hanging around
Or
else mating at a camping ground
Hating
to miss out on what is free

Is
it not a great pity and also a bitch
To
see the devastation done by the rich
To
be ruled by the wealthy comes at a cost
With
ethics and values and virtues soon lost
Since
power clings onto money unto the grave
While
condemning
Colonel
Gaddafi
and
the
brave
Autocracy
and Plutocracy
Unite
in a
liberal democracy
Where
pollution and collusion are abound
While
the poor are left hanging around
Or
else mating at a camping ground
Hating
to miss out on what is free
The
End
