Flapping Lips have their say
Brazen idol olden golden
Raised fists are emboldened
Demagoguery war of foggery
Inky stink of word boggery
Unfettered streams of worshipful praise
He will Save us from our malaise
Disparate desperation
calling us to oblation
Bonded bands of warring priests
Calling us to join their feasts
No one can
save you
No one should
save you
New messiahs for social pariahs
just another line of --- liars
Personality over powers
empty suits empty towers
Over burdened feet of clay
can not help but to give way
Spokes model idol fallen idle
Empty revival vain word recital
Led by malevolent benevolence
To our Magnificent irrelevance
We shall avoid the next disaster
By simply electing a better master
He who would
save you
instead will
enslave you
