[hometext] => Upon ending a Rage Against the Machine binge, me listening to the band for about three hours straight over my friend's house, I wrote this RATM inspired poem/song on the way home...yeah..
[bodytext] => Get back, turn to the wind, sun and rain Let all the oil go and run down the drain 700 billion in blood, sweat and tears The stimulus pokes' supposed to feed all our fears And those CEOs buy their man made islands While just to get food some turn to violence I'll tell you something, you've got it made Cause the bear market massacre drives us insane! Just sit and let your trust funds grow While a father sits on old death row Your stocks may rise and fall all day While a son is lowered into a grave Sit back, and get your dinner from intrest While a mother's wages are cut and diminished You go on a vacation cause you think you need it Whole a daughter prints food labels and can't even read it You wake up, shower, and eat your breakfast While a drug dealing boyfriend get arrested You'll tell you what, you're all the same And this bear market massacre makes me insane! Just sit and let your trust funds grow While a father sits on old death row Your stocks may rise and fall all day While a son is lowered into a grave This bear market massacre drives us insane While the rich old businessmen continue their reign!! This bear market massacre drives me insane While the rich ole businessman continues his reign!!
