Paranoid Vistas

Who is behind all the trouble? 
Is it the blacks, the whites. the Asians, Native Americans or the Eskimos ?
IS it the Jews, the Christians, the Moslems, the Buddhists, the Humanists? 
Let me let you in on a little secret 
THEY ALL ARE!
If you are paranoid you will find that your fears may well be justified 
The trouble is about to arrive 
So prepare yourself 
Hold onto your place in the galaxy 
For there are meteors and comets 
of all descriptions 
which may strike you down 
Paranoid vistas 
Something to ponder 
While you await deep winter 
Which always comes after the warmth dies

ohhh, love those last two lines: while you await deep winter. I am not waiting for it, but surely it is coming.
