A Twisted Valentine Pandemic Nation! 

There’s a battle that is raging For the future of mankind Those choosing to deny it Live in ignorance sublime Like a kiss of death eternal From a twisted Valentine Deceit hangs in the air Like a potent Turpentine Surveillance states’ their aim Information is the key More value there, than cash or gold A whole new currency Incentivize our doctors As, in time, we’ll pay their fee As every vestige granted Is never, ever free On the brink of World destruction With a populace irate While religious factions act On scripted policies of hate Governments in cold collusion Godless unions consummate Endeared to chains of servitude Beasts of burden copulate They! Enigmas and anomalies And walking contradictions We, stand, soldiers of misfortune On the road to our perdition Neither paedophile nor parasite Waste time on their contrition Each candidate’s a nightmare Spinning threads of cold sedition Like lemmings to the slaughter Or penned-in frightened sheep Their acid tongues enthuse us Not to leave our castles keep Our crucifixes mounted On Calvarys Hill so steep Armageddon’s looming closer Oh! How Jesus He must weep!
