Gizmos

Had a dream All was not as it would seem A country afraid to make war Became a store Started selling their war tools To unsuspecting needy fools The people were wise So they made their bombs in disguise Hid them well No one could even tell Phones Drones Metal Clones In plain sight they did hide On that electric bike you ride Like an ever spreading tide Spreading their ware Without a care People paid for their own doom Hey I will put this clock in my room My wallet is nice and fat Send me this send me that That robot vacuum is where it is at This laptop is as cool as can be Hey they give away tablets for free Do you not yet see A phone next to your ear May give you reason to fear This electronic gizmo you now hold in your hand ......Understand..... This plan they nurture Someday in our future The time becomes right Who knows if it is day or night They set their plan in flight Boom Goes your room So starts our doom That fancy car The explosion was felt so very far It lit up as bright as a star Into chaos we are hurled Around the world Civilization brought to its knees I can still hear the pleas In both land.and the shining seas This could or could not be true But it is something they could do Can you now see the light They could win without a fight
