On the Hook |
A dead silver spoon with needles in his skin |
Rode a pale horse down from Afghanistan |
Tears in the suburbs, mothers praying for their damned |
Death has crept into their zone of the promised land |
But just before each plague |
The clearest prophecies |
Pandora’s box in backwoods pharmacies |
A contract to die |
Prescription for a homicide |
A generation on the hook |
Addicted and commodified |
Prescription for a homicide |
Narcotic economics for the miner’s sons |
The seams went bust so long ago with nowhere else to turn |
Strip mine the veins, drill the abscess dry |
Incentives for the architects of their genocide |
We’ve seen this all before |
In a different shade |
The Dark Alliance shifts to the modern age |
A contract to die |
Prescription for a homicide |
A generation on the hook |
Addicted and commodified |
Prescription for a homicide |
Prescription for a homicide |
They’re never worth a second look |
Addicted and commodified |
Your prescription for a homicide |
A contract to die |
A contract to die |
A contract to die |
A contract to die |
Die, die, die, die |
Hippocratic hypocrites |
Breaking oaths and cashing checks |
Wrote an ocean’s worth of ink |
Scripting a nation’s disease |
A systematic business plan |
To broker death, increase demand |
So flood the ghetto and starve the hills |
Kill them all with crack and pills |
Kill them all |
Kill them all |
(Vietnam, Iran-Contra, Park Avenue, OxyContin) |
