lyrics

Mind overhead

Usurp the governing bipeds

with supreme exigency

Before the canon is weaponized

Fools they are all

Behead the one who stands tall

Expel the carcass of pride

Besmirching idols so deified

Congratulations

You won the race

Every square inch

has been defaced

The pesky have-nots

have been displaced

Reduced, exploited,

or just erased

From landlocked tribes

stuck with stone tools

To overcrowded public schools

From lapidary family jewels

To overflowing human cesspools

Megaton Kiss

Some sit atop

upholstered thrones

Some work their fingers

down to the bone

The cubicle

is their soul’s grave

So many willing

New age wage slaves

Whether you’re Hottentot

or hot to trot

Megaton Kiss

is what you got

You’ve screwed things up

but there is “hope”

Your genes are dirty

this is the soap

Megaton kiss

Mind overhead

Radiating from the woodshed

Under a hail of ice

Interior is paradise

Fools they remain

Artificer’s legerdemain obfuscating verity

But satisfaction they guarantee
