I shut my eyes and drink the rain;
Thinking madly about our children, fat, yet underfed.
(For endless corporate capital gain.)
Yellow fields of swaying grain
Fuel delusions, concealing dread:
I shut my eyes and drink the rain.
I watched my life go down the drain
And regaled stifled dreams so overripe, so dead on fire.
(For endless corporate capital gain.)
Factories wheeze and workers strike, hacks retire:
We vote for him, more lies, more sin:
I shut my eyes and drink the rain.
I hoped it would end but fear remained,
Until one day there was only noise.
(For endless corporate capital gain.)
I took it upon myself to go insane;
At least this way I fit right in.
I shut my eyes and drink the rain.
(For endless corporate capital gain.)
