The Violent Years
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Draw a dot, draw a bead Lifeline on glass rewriting Shot on shot, Ouroboros shot on tape So visceral, The breath you take shutting twenty-four silver barred cages Air's fat, cut away Draw a dot, a sprocket crease Catches the kids you're half-watching Flash! 9mm once removed Face bubbles away You can't open his glass coffin Your own is in the way Blockbuster films are our meal replacements The ugliest man is more beautiful Children's plates are a market to capture Grow waistlines, delight the investors 'cause the real profits On the billboards in their pockets Wants turned needs Stop bath fix on a developing child The purchase slogans keep Run a show, buy a lead Photographers behind police Shots stray to soft targets especially Who's buying this story The bored, the uninvolved The foreign armchair dissenter All silent Pour a shot, grab a seat Photographers take what they need The guided tour press junket runs daily And who is to say That they're marking up the tapeout Short the circuit, shoot the translator The light comes on anyway Favela, favela, favela CCTV Zapruder Unseen others Miniature, miniature people Compressed rain streaking grey The unwashed laundered casualties Follow orders to a man with a portrait out of frame And servicemen will follow closely Stop bath fix on a developing country Paid to look away But then again, your life's not much to look at, is it Click, click, click
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
