i want to tell you
all about the book i’m reading
it’s about this man who lives in a society
where they have seasons
but instead of spring,
summer, autumn, and winter,
they have
the season of threats
the season of lies
the season of hurt
the season of death
and then it starts
all over again

they have a newspaper
it’s called the daily lie
they have a tv show
it’s called the biggest loser
it’s the news
they have a national anthem
it’s called we shall overcome
they have a national bird
it’s called the bullshit bird
they have a national religion
it’s called the church of bullshit
they have a national flag
it’s called the bullshit flag
they have a national language
it’s called bullshit
they have a national holiday
it’s called bullshit day
they have a national sport
it’s called fight club
they have a national pastime
it’s called gun club
they have a national drink
it’s called kool-aid
they have a national motto
it’s called hang in there

they have politicians
they’re all bullshit artists
they have a president
he’s the biggest bullshit artist
they have policemen
they’re called death cops
they have a lot of people in prison
who spoke the truth
they have a lot of lawyers
they’re all crooks
they have a lot of rich people
they’re all liars
