Dumb Drum

[leafsailors ghost]

Rump T rump T rump t dumb
bang the dumb drum
rumble on the ground
melt miss liberty down
we don't want your oppressed or poor
your struggling or orphans any more
white boy wet dreams in the old mans money mind
tries to say who we are
Key Largo gold cold hearted clan man
slams the door on the poor
we don't want more brown around town
got to be a clown
better pay attention
he and his will brew up a war
the distraction money making action
been done before
the old whore patriotism comes to town
wrapped in the flag
finger on the trigger twitching bitch
is the best bet when the numbers are down
atomic solutions sit in the minds of fools
light the fuse and run like hell
will be the best war ever, ah well
rump t rump
bang the dumb drum
better run for the hills son

great poem...so musical.....the touches of rhyme twisted with the politics of the day and in fact the rapidly changing world....CNN introduces every single story as BREAKING NEWS !.....yes of course...we are in the midst of a cheap novel...... ....I remember in ZAP Comics this dude exclaiming, " Is Dis Da System !?"..........

ahh, ZAP Comix!

Let me comfort you away..."

Well if we fall for it, then, well, you know...
