They Are Listening

from 2013 by Phil McMillion

lyrics

crack a smile
bust some heads
break some eggs
lust for meds
meals on wheels
sequester that
surveillance deals
with some fat cats

who's the traitor
g.i. joe
raid the coffers
make some dough
spy on your neighbors
spy on your friends
have some leverage
it all depends

who do you love
what do you like
do you have a fetish
are you a dyke
brothers are listening
mining the data
with flawed software
its still in beta

crap floats to the top
didn't you notice
he's got a nice grin
he who is potus
i thought he was cool
a regular guy
but he's all cloak and dagger
a real cold spy

its all hush hush
you don't need to know
you don't see the strings
you stupid yo-yo
they know all my secrets
they know how i thinks
i'm getting jerked around
by some rat finks

they are all wearing
night vision goggles
i see the light
the mind it boggles
ultra violent
in the red
they cook the books
steal from the fed

they make a strange brew
with steam and bubbles
intoxicated as they
glean the rubble
from all the decaying
infrastructure
liberty statue
they dare not touch her

just can't look her
straight in the eye
as they get rich
while the poor masses die.
whats the point
of doing anything
it'll come back to bite me
i really shouldn't sing
