Dawn Cracks

Dawn cracks

Whips crack

The sky comes crashing down into hard facts

Smack heads and newly weds in bed together

Blink and you’ll miss it

Backs break

Broken over muck buckets and shovels

Some shovel shit

Some stand in shit and shovel shit for diamonds

A girl’s best friend

Know your enemy

Wall Street business minds

Stocks, bonds and violent crimes

Know your enemy

Not how things were meant to be

Change the channel

Hook, line and buttered into your comas

Blink and you’ll miss it

Dawn cracks

Clowns in cloned cliques laugh

Smiles fade

Broken under hard days and dreaming up life in wishing wells

To hell with all of it

Real stories

Whistle blowers exposing tycoons, cartoons and cartels

To hell with all of it

Doors open

Doors close

Roads turn and go the wrong way

Today’s the day, I said that yesterday

To hell with all of it

Same old, same old, same as it ever was

Pacify the masses

Mollify the masses

Separate the clones from the Klux Klux classes

That’s the way, that’s the way the story goes

Same as it ever was

From bad to worse and miles to go before this curse settles
