MONEY JUNKY
 


 

Certainly uncertainty spoils the wine;

Perpetual perplexity is a waste of time;

Honest men in decline -

Gonna resort to fraudulent fare and violent crime.


Money junky - paid to look funky

Nothing but a gold-card whore

Performs like a circus monkey -

Abused - misused - finally Refused;

Gotta suck the dick of Eunuch the Lunatic.

Just to get in the door.


Sacrificed soul offered up to The Man

Dressed head to toe

In polyester, faux leather,

And cheap cologne from Used-Bakistan;

But was promised for something better..,

To become “Much more than I am.”


Vanity verified by twisted sanity

Said to be agreed upon –

Rated by popularity -

Sent down by the divine through top-forty songs.

Won’t take long;

Mind found lost at the bottom of a see-through bong.


Same change of program put the madame in a jam

Like a Jew preaching Islam - without the Quran

Couldnt understand - cause “that s not how it began

Need to rattle the brain with a sinister plan..,


Certainly uncertainty spoils the wine;

Perpetual perplexity is a waste of time;

Honest men in decline -

Gonna resort to fraudulent fare and violent crime.


Now takes a stand and

Pretends it ain’t insane.

Got a condition

Filed under some cryptic name

Stricken by pandemic ambition - on a mission -

Feed the addiction - Beat the game.


Connection broken - tweekin/freakin - tryin' to get clean

Shot of whiskey in a cup of caffeine

Something forgotten about last night’s dream

Fueled by a gallon or two of extra-lite-delight

Whipped-up cookies-and-crème.


Feeling despised, fortune and fame dies

And no one gives a damn

But you still alive, burn-out by a life of lies

Cause the act was nothing but a sham

Damage was extensive – gettin’ expensive

Gonna take it on the lam.


Running like a fugitive with nothing left to give

As the promised prize wasn’t even half the size

Just a tease in disguise;

Opened with a double/double and extra fries.

Guaranteed to be effective – at least disinfected;

Then discredited

Subversive to submissive -

Blinded by a collapsed perspective.


Certainly uncertainty spoils the wine;

Perpetual perplexity is a waste of time;

Motherfuckers in decline -

Gonna resort to fraudulent fare and violent crime.


Now the sky opens and sings

Should bring some good feelings

But today it’s all about a bad ending

Murder and decay trending.


Twitter vengeance tweets bitter response

Imprisoned by dopamine dependence;

Need a cushion from the confusion

Just brings more depression;

Locked-down by the obsession

While looking for assurance

Just brings more repression.


Indoctrination makes for a good lesson

Then we all get up and dance - Fake romance

Reprogrammed rhythm - tied to a 4/4 beat

Don’t gotta think – just remember to repeat

Grows old real fast - not built to last

But the cheat be sweet

Protected by informed-consent in advance.


One good trip to the toilet

It will all come out

So foul

Need to flush all doubt.

Do it like they say

Makes for an even darker day

Want you to believe tomorrow will be O.K.

Watch it all get worse

Empty stomach – empty purse

Cry to the sky with an impotent curse.


Justified Bullshit to claim and acclaim -

But impossible to explain;

Cause This reality got smoked.., broke..,

Getting too damn lame.

Time to flip the script

Something other than the same;

Relief from the deceit of belief

Spread far beyond shame..,


Certainly uncertainty spoils the wine;

Perpetual perplexity is a waste of time;

Honest men in decline -

Gonna resort to fraudulent fare and violent crime.
