Teslacuted
Zap wowie electricity is so safe
And dangerous simultaneously
One can generate electrons and spark ‘em up
Horde them, sell them, pay endless utility bills for them
Make the wealthy more powerful or ...
One can just gather them up, them electrons
Share ‘em and its free power for all ...
For everyone to enjoy -
Share the wealth, save the humans and Earth
Solve the riddle and expose
The biggest hoax of the Century, even puzzling us geniuses
Sending Mankind backwards into caves
The biggest failure of the industrial age
Like possibly a genocidal potential rage
That evil has cloaked as “progress”
Meanwhile, we keep on driving our caves on wheels
That pollute our air and take us nowhere important
Perhaps, to drive pass the local nuclear power plant
That too is not clean energy and doesn’t resemble a plant
And are ticking time bombs just waiting to be a disaster
Distractions of false hope with windmills, solar panels and long-life batteries
All end up in dumps with a toxic price tag not so good for us
No, the reality is ...
Electricity is everywhere, all around us
Generated for millennia by Mother Earth herself
Spinning around and around the Sun.
If you’re coming to your senses ...
Shocking the monkey on your back with both eyes wide open
Your hair should be standing upward on end
By now from this political abuse
Or you just plainly start feeling gypped
Then you’ve been teslacuted!
Like me.
