here we are in monsterville
a cruel heartless place
where crucifixion is the public will
still society puts on a more polite face
those boulders and stones
strewn in the bumpy road
fallen bits of burnt heaven and poisoned earth
in the muddy ditch sits that sage toad
singing about worthy nature
croaking about what diversity is worth
here we are in twistedville
this screwed-up mind game place
where burning at the stake
seems a wholesome kill
accountable hierarchy
talking about divinity
of course we can't forget race
here we are in big brotherville
a void and consummately alien place
where pandemonium is the public will
still society puts on a less panicked face
here we are in systemic somewhereville
wrecks and rocks litter every road
such a disrespected world
atmosphere is cracked and broken
those falling bits of shit and piss
relegated fear is commonly spoken
still society thinks
reaction is delegated positive
negatively a hit or miss
those token demons
presiding in apocalyptic hell
publicly called upon
presidentially awoken
