Designer Victimimization
Sporting my victimization
After carefully shopping around
I select a tasty flavor
And I wear it with a frown
The hollowness assuages
Quantum power drains from me
I love being a victim
And wallowing in my misery
I get to avoid thinking
As I play the "poor me" game
And I get to be as powerless
As someone living life to blame
Terrorists or the Devil
Even God doesn't like me
It's written there in Genesis
He's sorry he created humanity
It's all those Liberals fault
Or the Conservatives to blame
Or they don't like my skin color
Or the government wants to take me away
If I could just make it to Heaven
That's when my misery will end
I'll be God's favorite victim
And never have a think again
[I've played most of those roles at one time or another during
my life, so I get to make fun of it now]
