    As the polls close like a casket

    On truth devoured

    A Silent play in the shadow of power

    A spectacle monopolized

    The camera’s eyes on choice disguised

    Was it cast for the mass who burn and toil?

    Or for the vultures who thirst for blood and oil?

    Yes a spectacle monopolized

    They hold the reins and stole your eyes

    Or the fistagons

    The bullets and bombs

    Who stuff the banks

    Who staff the party ranks

    More for Harris or the son of a slumlord

    None of the above fuck it cut the cord
