Dystopia Dysphoria

Made In America Is a fable By foreign companies For Gullible patrons Who love To call themselves Patriots Today a key To unlock the apartment Tomorrow It will be Your debit card And A credit score Will float over your head Kids go to school Not in the latest fashion Nor Do they wear uniforms No School kids Today they wear Bullet-proof vests No healthcare for all But war! War for all ages! Step up! One and all! Except for the rich! Only the poor Get to die! On television That's not a NASCAR race! It's congress But look Look at their sponsors Big pharma! And oil companies! Writing your laws! Dystopia dysphoria It never Seemed real Until We made it real! And Idiocracy is a documentary Of America's downfall!

You are so right! Jack and Jill are tumbling downhill because they believed in something that was never true.
