Perennial Lunacy

This world has become
A fucking place
Of perpetual lunacy
Malicious obedience paired
With boundless, everlasting asininity

Like tin soldiers on crack
Viewless, without any prospects
Grinding themselves to the reckless beat
Of the galley drums until they die

Raise foolery
Minimize individuality
Sacrifice them all
To the gods of economic growth

Raise the profit
Minimize the costs
Sacrifice them all
To the calf of gold

Constantly grinding
Thе flesh of the slaves
A juicy hog
In a gildеd cage

Keeping up appearances
Of the holy cow
The legal competition
Following like choirboys
Eyeless directly into the chasm

Covenant of lies
Pretender of benevolence
Seduction through wealth
Fallacious future
A knife in the back
Is the price of success

Raise foolery
Minimize individuality
Sacrifice them all
To the gods of economic growth

Raise the profit
Minimize the costs
Sacrifice them all
To the calf of gold

Constantly grinding
The flesh of the slaves
A juicy hog
In a gilded cage

Elimination of the futile old
Cheap young flesh
Bring them all
To the slaughter
