Birds Of Bureaucracy
Our world leaders bar none
(vultures each and every one)
are no more than hypocrites
if their talks are doves of peace
(they say it's purely politics)
why let fly the hawks of war
dropping bombs from drones
reducing towns to rubble
people blood and bones
bringing in the carrion crow
when will it ever end
who's to gauge assuage or know
as that (coal mine) canary
died oh so long ago
