Them Say Them Say
Nothing flies faster than ‘them say’; ‘them say’
Mystical wingless words
Weaponised within democratic state
Such freedom to incapacitate the state
Them say; them say’
A malicious tool
Against one; against all
Idealism against truth
Built within human wits
For hatred and threats
Do you remember what they said?
And they said
Yes; No
Hmm…! So I heard
Said by none
And it kept flying without wings
To nooks and crannies
Changing taste
Just a baseless propaganda
Na who talk em?
A common say to say
So I hear em; Na them say em
And confusion confuses all
The last was so strong to hold
Hmm, it horrified the loins
Them say e happen the way e happen
And we were all thrown into mystification
