Sh*t

The pipeline is constipated
medical advance causes
societal reverse clotting
life blood with non-functional
elderly cells - seeking
fountains of material youth
for spiritual effervescence...
these champagne bubbles of life
now off-gassed out beyond
even modest functional ability
dinosaur relix still control
chaos chokes on uber-order


gotta set the rules
gotta make em play
if ya can't be a yo-yo
on a rebounding string
they gonna make you go away


Research and development rules
justify bloated budgets
for no net results warranted
a cure for cancer would stifle
vociferous pharm industry
feel good medication to avoid
striking at the root of pain
underlying cause of rectal stoppage
enables abortive drive from
profit to prophet to drug lord
leave the realms of consciousness
for the vacuum pit of know it now


gotta set the rules
make em pay to play
if ya can't be a yo-yo
on a rebounding string
gotta make you go away


Protection rackets abound
snooping groupily around the net
flack reflection - too many rules
Oregon sells you a van rig
illegal to drive in Wyoming
where dime a dozen donut cops
with a chip on every shoulder
decides fate through scattered butts
not worth to create a windshield scene
(not that that crack ever changed
over thousands of miles of trip)


gotta set the rules
make em pay to play
if ya can't be a yo-yo
on a rebounding string
gotta make you go away

trickle down is trickle past
have you seen the face of the next world
chaos leaks and strings break
quarks are scattered to the winds
frequency involves many wavelengths
choose your priorities wisely
a skill in the hand is worth more
than ten ideas of what might be
life lights draw forth toward rescue
supportable levels of utility
constipation is a temporary effect
before the tide gates flood loose


gotta set the rules
gotta make em pay
if ya won't be a yo-yo
on a rebounding string
they'll try to make you go away...
