Monkeys In Suits

 

 

I see so many that feed on greed

Money is the only thing they think they really need

But these monkeys with ties on will get what they deserve

Monkeys in suits, gluttons, only thinking of themselves to preserve

 



Humans like to pretend they aren't animals

They rather enjoy thinking they are important and calling themselves mammals

They stink up the planet with their filth and their pathetic, corrupt governments

They lie, betray, spend their green paper and slowly waste away

Republicans and Democrats fight with each other while our country fails

Our outdated system falling apart in front of my eyes

Our system of two parties needs to say goodbye

But no matter what humanity is just monkeys in suits and ties

I think it's just humanity that needs to die

 



I tire of hearing these see through speeches

I tire of these idiots with their one sided views

I tire of the foolish rich, self-serving leaches

I tire of those who only care for those who they can use

Flush this race of fakes down the sewer

Flush them from the planet which they don't deserve to live on

Flush them from their capitals and from their palaces

Flush them all until they are gone

 



Our cities spread like a virus over the land

Our pollution is now getting out of hand

The monkeys like to sit and play politics

They would do just as well to sit in the dirt and toy with sticks

Presidents, dictators, senators

All monkeys in suits, all fake, power hungry whores

Bills, constitutions, laws, religions and rights

All to keep the monkeys in line, even so back and forth they fight

 



Humanity, hiding from the monkey inside

So use your toothpaste and your hair gel

Cover up the animal and make sure to do it well

So use your cell phone and go to your job

Lift your head high and pretend you are not a slob

Use your computer and go to the bar

Name your government party and drive your car

Speak your ignorant, dated religion and spend your money

Lift your head high and pretend you aren't almost a monkey

 



The world shall not end when we end

Just the false society of pretend

The world will breath a sigh of relief when humanity is no more

But so much suffering is still in store
