comedic -truth/   bewailment of social evils
If We Don Need Um-Why Feed Um We do not need to feed - who we do not need Every since they yelled thar's gold in dem dar hills dars oil in dat der groun there's diamons in dat der mine there is salt in dat mine ders water in dat well dars feritle soil on dem peoples lan. Poor people have become a means to an end disposable-dispensable unemployable slavery is still a commodity. Build new prisons - keep them on reservations. Bring in the cheaper workers Bring in the desperado's and they know how to suffer in silence. These others make to much noise and these union boys.-unwieldy They've had their day- They've had there say. There's GMO'S in them dar fish N chickn's tomatoes and corn.. Feed um fuel ,no more sugar cane- Syrup from the corn or bust. Eat that they mus ! They'll soon be insane,feed um dat; And other poison food stuff. We don need um -why feed um HUH? Did I mention we can now use their pensions.. ( Song) If you R happy and you know it then your face will surly show it if you R happy and you know it ...say ?
