Repeats Performance
Every senario
Every page in the historical record
Every musical score in Hollywood
Every newscast
Every front page
Every new tax
Every new price increase
Every new terrorist
Every new war
Every financial market crash
Every newly prescribed drug
Every football match
Every new beat on religious fervour
Every political answer
All the problems
And their solutions
Every new contribution
Every president, prime minister, head of state and dictator
Every starving mouth
Every new weapon
Every new massacre and atrocity
Every new oppression
Every new fashion
Every new soap opera
Every new advert
Every new theme in film
Every documentary
Every Christmas and birthday
Every car, building, chair and home
Every child and adult
Every television, computer and music centre
Every job
Every wage packet
Every debt
Every day and every night
Every class
Every school
Every new false flag operation
Every new organisation
Every new threat
Every new technological advancement
Every new pop idol
Every new Oscar
Every new symbol
Every new convenience
Explained away by expedience
Every new momentary thrill
Every minute and hour
Every second
Every twist and turn
Suckled on the teat of indoctrination
Every generation
Repeats Performance
Same flag, same nation, same opinion
Same regurgitation
Same crap
Different century
