Same Old Guard
What a state this world is in,
here integrity seems a mortal sin;
in Washington they play the dirty game
Obama's change is the same old thing.
Rockefellers, Rothschilds, Monsanto too,
lust for power breeds only woes;
upon Adam lay they burdensome load,
they only want what's good for you.
Back in India they plant genetic seeds
just tryin' to feed their family's needs,
round-up-ready they plant their plot
reap bitter harvest, everything lost.
Corporations lust for the bottom line
don't give a damn for humankind.
Pollute the earth with toxic gas,
the water and land by their bloated ass.
Carrion scum, they'll have their reward
Canibals they, feast off the poor.
Say sickly farmers shouldn't whine,
don't give a damn for humankind.
'gainst those that labor & toil til sore,
abuse vast power, narcissistic whores.
There's a moral to this tale so sad,
these Corrupter's sowing seeds bad.
Wont be long 'fore they get their due
I'll be right glad, how about you...
