Those from the Far Right
Aren’t all that bright
They really can’t wait
To peddle their hate
And make people feel uptight.
They stomp around without a care
Furiously waving their flags in the air
Freely attacking migrants on sight
Wrongly believing that might is right
As they demonstrate a Hitleresque flair.
While the poor continue to hurt
Totally fooled by those in Brownshirts
Wage slaves continue breaking their backs
Corporations continue to not pay tax
Oh look there’s another billionaire pervert.
So don’t be fooled by the loudest voices
And be wise when making political choices
They came for the Gypsies, the commos, the Jews
And one day they might even come for you
And the fascists will all rejoice.
DECEITFUL DEALINGS AND DEATH
Buying a big old mask for my face!!
I am fooling, you~ you know me far better, you need not a trace.
It's amazing people don't have a clue how to use them!
Not knowing this, could bring on a case of CoVid, who can blame them?
It's more than immoral to not tell people, the dangers.
But in these days, in our fear,now we trust money hungry strangers.
Each day more creative coverings are shown, as hawkers who see them,
To cashing in on fear, it's how they are thrown!
Worse are the freaks or friends who call 911!
Calling the police, like brownshirts, it's a thing that's done??
They haven't a clue that today, you just tested negative.
These self-proclaimed brown shirts, smiling with glee, as you are arrested.
Hiding in coomfy houses,like Techno-lost rats are we!
So we stay at home, some even afraid of bumble-bees.
Take care of yourself, please don't be a rat-fink calling the police?
Better call on neighborhood gang members who leave the young dead and fleeced.
