Think nothing worthwhile of their poetry At first they may seem charming, but pay them no mind Keep your back to the wall and your jacket on Theirs is not a smiling god They are the time and motion men Wasting away in middle management Loyal to the cause of the Torch Committee Far out of reach, beyond reproach Their cadaver dogs will sniff out all your secrets And they'll crush your dreams if you still have any They'll burn your world and call it art So grab your kids and run to the car Level the mountains for their riches Burn the harvests to increase profits Dam the rivers to keep the lights lit And part the seas just out of hubris Keep 'em busy or someone might notice Cake some makeup on the bruises Herd the masses for birth to casket By the ballot or the bullet It's innate and prehistoric Like a whisper in your bloodstream There's nothing that we can't do ourselves And the law is just an anagram of wealth
