Treadmill-March

Darker days loom on the horizon
 The all-seeing eye forever roving
 Troops deployed at the borders,
 20, 000 and counting,
 To an armchair-ovation of epic proportions
 New order's established in this recession
 Main street USA basks in blind obedience
 Given less and taken for more and more
 On a treadmill march toward next year's war
 Corporations swallowing bailouts
 Swindling handshakes in secrecy
 The trickle down of their greed:
 500, 000 jobs and counting
 The bodies of the destitute swiftly mounting
 New order's established in this depression
 Main street USA basks in blind obedience
 There's still the military option:
 Go to Iran or Pakistan for a tour
 Lead the treadmill-march
 Toward next year's war
 Relapse. Retreat. Collapse. Defeat.
 New world order is established
 New world order: blind obedience
 Forward march!
