Imitation of Silence |
| How is it that these days |
| The guilty ones come off so clean |
| A demon is godly and praised |
| By the poor and the meek |
| We plot and we dream and lose sleep |
| Over the vulgar and ugly |
| But they’re immune to it all |
| They don’t falter or fall |
| It’s ungodly |
| Never tell them enough |
| Make as if your mouth’s shut |
| We’re the wolves, they’re the sheep |
| Just pretend that you’re weak |
| An imitation of silence |
| We’ll pretend that we’re tired and beaten |
| Just cry and play possum |
| Rock them to slumber like children, then |
| Strike |
| And they won’t know what hit them |
| A license to hate and to kill and to rape |
| And a birthright to privilege and easy |
| Escape |
| With intimations of violence |
| Despotic old criminals |
| Eager to rule us to pieces |
| The trumps and the bushes |
| The reagans |
| The right-winged fascists |
| The bigots and racists that shit where we eat |
| We’ll just keep a safe distance |
| Rope-a-dope them to sleep |
| In imitation of silence |
