I'd like to speak to a manager
To the abode
I offer information overload
You can’t tell
Fact from fiction
That’s exactly what we want
To continue this friction
Of us versus them
Them against they
Me against you
Add to the mix
Nobody has a clue
Of what is true
And what is a lie
All they seem interested in
Is watching you die
Emotions run high in this day and age
Where racism rules
And fascists rage
The powder keg has been lit
And the country has gone to shit
Half live in the absurd
The other half in the blurred
One thing is for sure
2020 has been one big turd!!!
Who’s responsible?
Eric (and sometimes not)
