Pimping For the Puppet Masters
Hey, I've always been ***** for the Men at the Top,
It is something to which I can cheerfully cop.
They're my Pharaohs and Saviors all rolled into One;
I, like, pee in my pants when I see what They've done.
Well, I'd committed my share of despicable crimes
As reported back then in the Nueva York Times
For my part in arranging Establishment's doom
By concocting a way to make buildings go "Boom!"
But I got a reprieve from the full forty years
And secured a nice job filling students with fears
Of the evil designs of their Capitalist dads
And assuring they'll soon go the way of all fads.
See, I studied the habits of parasites well
In the time I had served in my bleak prison cell
And I saw that the way to defeat my old Foe
Was to work from within to take over the show.
As I sit here and twist my moustache with great glee
I can dream of the day when my minions and me
Have corrupted the souls of the rest among you
Who once loved so-called "liberty", "truth" and "virtue".
So the Cancer long known as the Communist Cause
Is entwining itself here in our country's laws
We'll just take what we want from the ones who work hard
And enjoy what they're pathetically striving to guard.
You can cry and complain 'til you're blue in the face
But we'll just say it's all on the basis of race.
There's no way you can win, it's all useless, you know;
You've grown weak, and your skills at debate really blow.
Though you pray to your "god" for a last-minute save,
It's your spawn who shall savagely stomp on your grave.
They'll be taught that the Czar is the Way and the Word
And the will to be "free" is completely absurd.
