Inscribed
I stole my aphorisms from a young girl named Tristan Tzara
I minored in comedy but I majored in horror
I reached my 100th year when I was 27
I was inscribed inside with a little hint of heaven
And I’m writing this prescription
From an anarchist jurisdiction
Which is just a slimy fantasy
Or wistful wisdom let it be
Idiocracy (The Documentary)
And the idiots rose up against The Farrow and cried
Tore off their masks and roared “Let my people die!”
And the Orange Messiah passed out pills and bleach
And everyone agreed “great again” was within reach
And they came with their guns
And even some with hair buns
And all the Karens and Jaspers
Were cheering from the rafters
And some nebbishy patricians
Were signing their petitions
To please their voter base
By appealing to their race
And as they caught and spread infection
Orange Messiah fucked with the election
And called the idiots to insurrection
Promised free Cheetos and police protection
And so the virus spread and spread
Until there were millions dead
And all the supply chains collapsed in dread
And couldn’t get the people fed
And that was just the early crisis
Idiocracy spread just like the virus
To every corner of the earth
And every nation sputtered and lurched
And the idiots rose up against the Farrow and cried
Tore off their masks and roared “Let my people die!”
And the Orange Messiah passed out pills and bleach
And everyone agreed “great again” was within reach
So kiss farewell to the well-mannered plutocracy
And wave hello to the global Idiocracy
Illusions Of Agency
The great society
The ideology
Culture theory
Timothy Leary
Plant a tree
Subversives on TV
Digital means free
Let’s try alchemy
R.U. Sirius
Act imperious
New edge freaks
All power to the geeks
Illusions of agency
Illusions of agency
Illusions of agency
Illusions of agency
The DNC
Crypto-anarchy
Spread a creed
Propaganda by deed
Wild schemes
My magazines
Guillotines
Control of the means
Hillary and Bill
The Triumph of the Will
A perfect peace pill
Mad skills
Illusions of agency
Illusions of agency
Illusions of agency
Illusions of agency
Spread a trope
Audacity of hope
Say nope to that joke
Demand better dope
Susan Sarandon
Charlie Manson
Hair of Samson
Dear Leader is handsome
Pontificator
Angry instigator
Be a player
Run for mayor
Illusions of agency
Illusions of agency
Illusions of agency
Illusions of agency
Transhumanism
Ideological schisms
Elon’s cybertruck
The belief in luck
Joseph Stalin
Marty Balin
Volunteers
Rock careers
Patty Hearst
Voodou curse
America first
Melania’s purse
Illusions of agency
Illusions of agency
Illusions of agency
Illusions of agency
Stay the course
Find the source
Use force
Express remorse
Bio-engineer
Manipulate through fear
Point and jeer
Let me steer
