Media's no longer much more than an industrial cesspool
Draining down the mind-numbed fool
Catchphrases redouble further armor the bubble
Encasing the oncoming shell in the form
Of a culture embodying ignorance manifest
Stumbling on with the rest over slabs of excess
As one can't live without that which stoppers the doubt
So with much processed food, though for so little thought,
The gargantuan maiden is flat footed caught
Indeed, her own weight pulling her down
Semisolid sanctuary - mostly full of cracks
Governmental ecstasy is boiling through half-beaten facts
Woe to rebel, for it reacts, it sooths and warms and hacks
The flow of information's but another tainted creek
Stemmed by commercial waste and error
Separating fact from fiction's like using your hands
To sort waters from the sands; and salts, sulfates, debris
And so much fucking more, digressing to absurd degrees
Time again excused by war, at other times relayed
On a lack of social cooperation and private intervention
As if corporate hypocrisy's got anything to do with me
I couldn't own an enterprise if I'd like to
'cause they're bound to shoot me low!
Semisolid sanctuary - mostly full of cracks
