[Verse 1:] We’re living in a joke time, metaphorical coke time Commerce and guru men, run the whole world man …old world brutality Cold world k**s softly, whole world runs savagely Reading into prior things, program TV screens Quick scam and drag queens, real likely to blast fiends Think twice and past dreams, crime if you ask clean Quick fast, the poison has entered the blood stream Psychological master, consequences of tragedy Mythological characters, men and women is parody Superficial vanity, borderline insanity Out of order humanity, crime committed so pa**ively Desperados and casualties, corporations want batteries Explanations of strategies, domination and mastery …bankrupt, grown people so corrupt Light swords and yellow men… popularity Culture so independent, vultures scavenge reality Past feeling depravity to kings social cavity Prey on human ignorance, popular immorality Sympathy disease head, population misled Self indulgent past dead, absence of the God head Pimps, pushers and… Nepotism, no artistery …and privacy Desperation, dishonesty Physicist is your policy, more money, less equality Inflated global ego, imitating reality Fuel cycle pharaoh, poisonous poison arrows Hypocritics on salary, idle hands that was agency Predisposed to complacency, jealousy, audacity Contagious social gluttony, stages of ma** belignency Effort to make conception, generation in atrophy Glam life in debt, scam life in editors Byproducts of neglect children hiding from crediters Absence of self respect, fully scared of competitors Lifestyle of luxury at someone’s expense Sensitive children, used up and sacrificed Blind to the consequence, smoked up on dope pipes Ecstasy, fast life, recklessly past life Narcotics and cash fight, just neurotic society Benefactors turned actors, addictions triple captors Experience manufactures just neurotic toxic society [Verse 2:] It’s like post-war, they looking for the commenters or who the marxs is Ten thousand pictures on Facebook, it’s like the pot callin’ the kettle narcissist Come on really, sayin’ it’s the devil, but you’re the chief arsonist Hypocrites can’t even see their own part in it No reflection, vampire paradigm No introspection, break down Three months before pure obsession, picture can’t take down Children, this a shake down, they just lookin’ for a sacrifice They been doin’ this since before Bobby Darin sang Mack the Knife Before James Dean’s car did a jack knife …because they lack life or lack guts Never confuse the head with the bu*t Opinions are like a**holes and most of ‘em stink I was told by a woman, so rethink, don’t ever let them ever lead you to drink Leave you to doubt, lead you to fall Get up, stand us, pa** Lucifer out Shake it up baby, watch them twist it and shout Insecure a**holes lookin’ for a ticket To ride on somebody like the picket, it’s f**in’ wicked, shame on ‘em This neurotic toxic society [Verse 3:] Sick cycle psychology in desperate need of psychiatry Exorcism, sobriety, forcin’ social lobotomies People stuck in dichotomies, pseudo-sicko anxieties Serial criminals dressed in variety Social transvestisms, subliminal dressed up as piety Transforms projections like Cartesian images Robbing innocence, stealing inheritance Quiet victims with no defense portrayed over dollars and cents Maladjusted ignorant malediction and dissonance Too much addiction, no consciousness Don’t trust it, this cosmology is busted Broken returns to the dusted, stems of corruption Oppression, deceit, abuse and repeat They don’t feel complete unless they’re robbin’ the sheep Man is not a product if you call it that then stop it In this neurotic godless society
