Supervillians livin to control the globe

with the power to twist words and swallow you whole

multiple personality disorder created abominations

have evil plans carefully designed and legislated



Doctor America Frankenstein brought these creatures to life

now we’re in a bit of a bind and our leaders are goin blind

apparently they don’t see how these monsters continue to breed

ignorance and apathy we need to tease this disease

We’ve been infected to believe that we need more than we got

while most of the people around the globe starve and rot

and the planet is developing cancer from all the shots

of artificial chemical drugs for growin crops



How many heads does this monster have?

You could cut one of them back, but there’s no way it would last.

Whatever heads are left will take over control

and roll with the punches as it travels the road

of destruction disguised as progress, a tool

of corruption so that the biggest share is held by the few

the only moral code that this creature holds

is the bottom line profit, the one-term goal



How many lives will this monster take before it pays

for the mistakes it’s made on purpose day after day.

Surface evidence swept under the rug, it was built

to never acknowledge weakness and never admit guilt



But wait a minute, we can’t look at it the wrong way

this monster might just be too powerful to slay

so instead, our only option is to starve it to death

by creating a new economy without wealth or debt.

A system designed with everyone’s benefit in mind

technology will rise exponentially before our eyes

solutions instead of laws so politicians can’t lie

until we eradicate violence and poverty and crime
