A commentary on capitalism

A frantic dash towards the line

Of right and wrong, as up you climb

The throats you slash, like cheques you sign

Sing frightful songs, of paradigm

x

Of systems built to be the bane

Of average Joe and average Jane

These CEOs all seem insane

They lack all guilt about the pain

x

That they inflict upon the world

As they insist they’re on our side

And they depict themselves so pearled

They can’t resist their comments snide

x

That show them for just what they are

The truth about the human scar

That we’d all go SO fucking far

Just for the chance to seem a star
