Stakes are high and getting higher
most are chips on the table
we don't get to play no cards
get bought and sold on the whims
bluffs and fortunes
of the real players
sold for sex/to addiction
idle victims of an emotionless Market
basic goddamn cruel and blind economics
rewards the elite/ and lets the peasants starve
they capture the rebellious now in hidden webs
Total Information Awareness:
combining every fact on a person
every phone call, email, text, film
law broken/disease/book borrowed or bought/
every brush with authority/every grade/upbringing
all the ingredients of mind
the dictionary of your personal world
defined and calculated and defined by the latest greatest psychiatric theory
they will process us through computer programs
that projects how you and you and you
will live a life
how accurate will They Great They decide the machine has to define us to lock us up?
how many times they have filmed us at protests
will determine how worthy of a target you are
for their intrusion
into your day to day
targeted by the very government you sought to love and cherish and save
they
prevent our voices from getting unto any podiums
of wealth, fame or prestige
a variation of China's complete control of what artists say
they want us to be completed by their newspapers
as they played out a reality of the far right and center left
leaving every other voice margenalized
not covered by the local news
voiceless in their television world
so bad in the states that Noam Chomsky said no leftist papers
can survive the corporate pressures applied
and he was reminded as much on the 30th anniversary of such a paper in Mexico
one... just one...
Now... the internet has taken the word from our unholy masters
democratized the word
in a way no movie, play, or tv show was ever allowed
A pandora's box of politics has flown open
the stars have fallen to the earth
exploding into sparks
igniting the righteous fires
the stars have fallen to the earth
exploding into sparks
igniting the righteous fires
here we are free to throw our voices
into the intellectual morass
into the intellectual morass
to deconstruct/decontaminate -- accuse and destroy
I foster private visions of a day when the word is democratized
the words spoken from the lips of a beggar as important as a president's
stoned and wounded and dreaming hard on vengence
I stagger across the pages drunk with the power of a genie
who has smashed his bottle
equalities greatest tool has been accessed
there is no turning around
no television is going to control us again
the masses are officially in revolt
there will be no positive thinking personality deprived losers paying 9 grand to die
in a psuedo-native american sweat lodge
for god'/s fucking sake
following the preachings of an Ophra approved shyster
the yuppies sweated out their vital juices seeking the elusive truths
that make the human emotions 'happy' 'content' slaves of the Market
those who can think outside of their own heads
there will be no positive thinking personality deprived losers paying 9 grand to die

following the preachings of an Ophra approved shyster
the yuppies sweated out their vital juices seeking the elusive truths
that make the human emotions 'happy' 'content' slaves of the Market
those who can think outside of their own heads
spend lifetimes pondering how to bring peace to this world
how to make a boarder less mentality
a world of fair democracies joined together by their shared values
where the concerns of a few entrenched interests
cannot band together to prevent the government
from stopping the rising deaths of our uninsured
agents play the game and use you like a carny pumping a mark
like a stock broker selling and buying you stock just to get a commission
predators milking the infinite tit for a little stolen mother-milk
damn the babies they starve with their habits
