The Best Government Money Can Buy Poem by Indiscreet Episode

I would find it hilarious
That someone so nefarious
Has forcibly taken control
Of the world's supply of petrol

Were it not for the simple fact
There's an environmental impact
That will still be felt globally
Far into the next century

Women and children continue dying
While cheap goods we all are buying
As we nickle and dime their futures
At the local super-mega-stores

Monsanto's tampering with our food chain
Factories dumping chemicals down the drain
The Drug Industry gives our children Ritalin
As corporate media diverts our attention

Perhaps you didn't notice this
Our country's run by lobbyists
If you finance a campaign you can
Own your very own Congressman
