Lust For Power
By Sara Poirier
The milk pumped from betrayal is oh so sour,
But we must use it to feed our lust for power.
But we must use it to feed our lust for power.
Climb to the highest point on the social tower,
Stay there a life time and only work for an hour.
Stay there a life time and only work for an hour.
Cover their eyes and keep the cash flowing,
Don't tell the outsiders where it is going.
Spend it all without anyone knowing,
Make sure there is no evidence showing.
Don't tell the outsiders where it is going.
Spend it all without anyone knowing,
Make sure there is no evidence showing.
The poor are starving while the rich get fatter,
The wealthy stand on top while the peasants hold the ladder.
Empty promises while the economy get sadder,
A political debate turns to mindless chatter.
The wealthy stand on top while the peasants hold the ladder.
Empty promises while the economy get sadder,
A political debate turns to mindless chatter.
Parents teach us manners but they are so rude,
The children ran because they were abused,
The trees are clear of birds that once coed,
Nothing is left, it was all used.
The children ran because they were abused,
The trees are clear of birds that once coed,
Nothing is left, it was all used.
