Cancel Culture
When Cancel Culture comes to town
What more is there to do?
Do you fight, or just give in?
It’s always up to you.
But if we bow before the woke
Our heads will surely roll
As they demand their pound of flesh
And so collect the toll.
And if we rise and take the bait
We’ll lose again as well
It’s just the way the game is rigged
As history does tell.
So fare thee well I say to you
Who cancel all in fear,
While I retreat into the hills
And keep my powder near.
For one day soon as dawn does come
You’ll wake up with a start
To realize all you did and said
Was nothing but a fart.
