Kundalinguini said:As If
Sometimes you really have to wonder
just how dumb they think we are,
as if the woes we struggle under
get solved with a bigger car;
as if the words "that other guy"
mean "nothing that we need to do"
that if they turn a jaundiced eye
it's got nothing to do with you;
as if the lie "the jury's out"
is all it takes to make it true
when all the experts scream and shout
and say they haven't got a clue.
They roast their critics on page one,
recant their lies on page E-2,
while seasons pass and nothing's done
that means a shit for me and you.
But it's not them my words are flaying.
I don't want them misconstrued.
They think it's just a game they're playing,
but if they lose we all get screwed.
See, angry as those losers make me
I really don't expect much more.
No, it's all those who suffer greatly
and will not show them to the door.
The ones who hear but barely listen,
listen but don't stop to think,
"Hey, maybe they don't have a vision.
Maybe they just need a shrink!"
It's the mass that gives them power,
but never once expects their due,
trusting sound bites on the news hour:
"It's on TV, it must be true."
stupid sheeple
