lyrics

NIL BY MOUTH

Pick a side and go
Check the leadershit
Lick those fetid lips and
Track the fleshiest of rears

A chosen one
Apparently awoke
A master of laws
An ideologue
Moulded mouthpiece
For the unspeakable

But

Oh my word
Such a shame
Mouth
Prone to
Defecate
Hyperbole

Feel the weight
Of the same shit
Over and over and
Overstate
The needs of a slave

Every answer
Recited
Delivered oh so flawlessly
Agenda team, yet one

Left, right, up or down
Get your story straight
Parrot jargon now
And get yourself liked on a feed

But
But

What you feed
What you grow
Grows broken as
You run the show and
Those you break
Watch you fall and
Watch you as
You lose control
Watch them breed
Another clone then
Throw them before
One and all
Watch them smirk with
Whitest teeth
Brown with ideology

Oh my word
Such a shame
Mouth
Prone to
Defecate
Hyperbole

Feel the weight
Of the same shit
Over and over and
Overplay
The deeds of a slave
