Created by a cunning evil? By hearts as cold as ice? Or by bombs born in the heart? Where passions flare And anger turns to hate? Are these killers motivated By the urge just to destroy? Are they simply devils Whos hands must employ Only means of darkness With peoples' lives to toy? Do we believe the myth That the devil stands behind Each and every action With red skin and claws Goats eye and breath He screams his commands And his minions bring us death? Or the opposing myth His opposite so pure A saintly God who's every thought Is gentle and demure Who spends His days in loving Those who bring the cure And kill the evil among us Are you so very very sure? Is all life black and white With nothing in between? Are you either with or against All so clearly seen? Just good and evil Right and wrong No need to be confused But is it not like the fascists Who also sense refused? They talked about a noble elite So fair and strong and pure An Aryan breed who stood so proud For weakness they were a cure All degenerate forms Were to be swept away Bringing Earth to the winners Pure gold from the clay Is this not the world we're headed for With Bush and his Christian ghouls? They see the world in black and white So comforting for your souls We are the righteous In danger and in fear We'll destroy the evil doer Driving him from here Oh, if life was just that simple Just like old John Wayne But all these simple solutions In long term just bring pain It's all so much garbage He can never deliver It sounds so good But so it should For the short term powermonger Just be nicely manipulated To move into that polling booth Move along little mindless sheep the stupid and uncouth We wont tax your brains with long explanations A sound byte will do you With your daily rations We are white and they are black We are good and they are evil Don't think. That's not what we want We are sheep and they are goats All we need are your brainfree votes Get angry on command Just do as we say And remember our simple message On your polling dying day [comments] => 1 [counter] => 142 [topic] => 43 [informant] => Steeleyes [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )
