Up Shit’s Creek

Is anyone else tired of this fucked up corrupt system,
That’s definitely resisting listening to wisdom,
Even police lack common sense and intelligence,
Issuing an excessive amount of tickets in negligence,
Again passing this country’s financial woes onto the people,
I swear our government is disgustingly evil,
Despite the middle class being collectively pissed,
We insist on doing what’s in the rich’s best interest,
No regulation’s required for authority,
Voting is no longer the voice of the majority,
It seems to me popularity beats quality,
Bush rigging the second election still really bothers me
Laws are filled with hypocrisy,
Capitalism’s absolutely ruining democracy,
Further dividing instead of uniting us,
Consumed by fear so we’re lacking the guts,
And the ability to trust,
That judges will rule and do what’s fair and just,
Everybody’s hidden agenda involves gaining a competitive edge,
Dig deep enough and you’ll find dirt u can use as leverage,
Blackmail’s totally cool and in fact’s the new fad,
Just anxiously await for the next celebrity mishap,
Who in Hollywood isn’t cheating beating or stealing,
Which politicians aren’t soliciting or illegally scheming and back-end dealing,
My fists are clenching with this wrenching feeling,
There’s a slim chance of recovery unless we begin mending and healing,
After years of discrimination and oppression,
I thought the recession would be a disguised blessing,
Forcing people to re-evaluate living within their means,
Unfortunately instead we fell for wall streets greed,
Don’t believe that repercussions have peaked,
It appears the whole globes pretty much up shit’s creek!


Peace and 1,
