Perfect World

Bankers and politicians, exchanging positions
ever campaigning, man
buy, buy, buy
same men who conceived and constructed religion in boxes for three generations
perfect world, perfect world

Actors and musicians, necessary distractions
from wars and acquisitions
close your eyes, close your eyes
pay no attention to the king behind the curtain
more confident than certain
perfect world, perfect world

Fifty years of constant information
a billion screns all flickering in time, all in time
a century vacations while half a dozen voices scream six hundred stations
perfect world, perfect world

Monied interests fuel mass ignorance
piggyback the poor man
what a ride, what a ride, what a ride
we hide inside temples, re-crucifying Jesus, brewing corporate diseases
perfect world

As if position could keep you from the grave
as if everyone weren't headed there in line
in a line
advance is an illusion, it moves in one direction with a flawless execution
perfect world, perfect world

Bankers and politicians, exchanging positions
ever campaigning, man
buy, buy, buy
