The Most Unthinkable Ultimate Weapon

Some crackpot wacko researcher has gone and done the unthinkable deed at last

And now it’s up to us to make sure this thing doesn’t fall into terrorist hands

Turns out it’s really quite simple to make and way too easy to secretly transport

We got to retain tight control of this invention or our precious liberty is surely at risk

The mad scientists have gone and let an evil genie out of the bottle once again

Proliferation cannot be an option for the freedom loving peoples of the world

If our enemies get hold of this, it will threaten our traditional family values

We alone must retain control of this awful power - for the benefit of all mankind

Our strategic analysts warn of its terrible consequences for our military establishment

It’s just the kind of thing that the one-worlders have been wanting for use against us

This weapon could upset our carefully crafted, fear-based global power balance

It will put the people of our sacred fatherland at the mercy of the godless heathen

There’s no denying its potential to do good if we were to use it in the proper manner

But, in the hands of radicals, it would represent a clear and present danger

Its proliferation would pose the gravest threat of any doomsday scenario yet

Mr. President, we must act at once to halt the spread of this terrible innovation

Already, there is intelligence that our enemies seek it on the world’s black markets

We have detected some French testing out on one of their remote Pacific atolls

Unconfirmed reports say an outlaw state is trying to acquire its raw materials in Africa

Some kind of loony religious cult wants to loose it on the entire world in aerosol form

We got to keep a closer eye on our so-called allies in the light of this new threat

We are ramping up our domestic intelligence gathering a bit more in secret, just in case

They say it might even be introduced covertly into our food and water supply

What we need is another world treaty which we can ignore but force others to obey

Already, reckless young people are experimenting upon each other with this stuff

The generals and politicians are demanding that the policy wonks craft a solution

This thing could spiral way beyond our control and end all our cozy partnerships

We must quickly ramp up coordinated media, military and diplomatic campaigns

Congress must quietly funnel millions for secret research and covert operations

Believe it or not they’ve found a vaccination for that sacred pox known as war

Marginalize Their Greedy Squeals

Cast out the amoral animals who for so long have set the agenda that led us into this mess

Throw out the fools who invented these various greedy, non-renewable ponzi pyramids

Go back to the best of the past and meld it to the New Green

Kick out those so-called free market, bulldoze-and-run, copy-and-paste developers

Because now they’ve had their 50 years of gluttonous and uncurbed, wanton destruction

Bring back respect and love for simply sustaining the earth and its treasures

Give up the worship of blind greed that has stolen so much without even paying interest

Root out the lie that it all must come down to the money, every single goddamn time

Wake up the financial innovators still caught in their wrung-out, unregulated NeoCon MLM schemes

Finally, even give peace a try, now that they have had their violent way for far too long

Bring back the dreams they so long have scornfully rejected without even a fair hearing

Their time is over now, so take a look around and simply review their accomplishments

Brush aside those who for too many years have labeled you as simple and foolish idealists

For they’ve starred too long in this show that has resulted in a dirty and unsustainable mess

Don’t bother to fight them, let’s just everybody move out quietly and head the other way

Forget their smash and grab, waste for today, foolishly noisy, selfish rationalizations

Get back in tune with the ancient song of the earth they still find so goddamn silly

Leave them to their phony memoirs but never forget their very real and very destructive lessons

Get them out of the way now, but not out of our history books

Quietly ignore their constant self-abusive hurry, anger, stress, noise and worry

Even bring back a bit from the sixties and we shall try to overcome, once again

Don’t struggle against them but don’t bother listening to them anymore, either

Ease them from power, leave them stewing inside their expensive locked and gated compounds

Clean up their messes, get on the right path and simply don’t let them do it again

Turn off their reasonless noisemakers and recycle their foolish gas-powered toys

Now we’ve seen their results and it’s time to straighten up and get started on our own

Go about your good business and leave them to strangle alone in phony suits and ties

Marginalize them with an overwhelming kindness and a smilingly-smothering concern

Herd them safely together like 1^st graders, in their own simple but noisy confusion

They had their best shot but now have walked away, tasking us with rescuing the future

Let a billion small voices overcome their scripted and poisonous corporate sound bites

Allow the sounds of nature to replace their random and self-centered advert nattering

Save more for those to come instead of stripping and wasting all we can now for ourselves

Smile politely as you pass by their lawn chairs, moving away in a different direction

Clean up their glossy spin along with all the careless litter they left on the ground

Forget their phony free market healthcare, education, environment and poverty solutions

Turn their toxic legacy into a great lesson that we shall never forget and never have to repeat

Junk their worn-out fantasy religious rationalizations and venal social darwinism

Free eroded corpro-conglomerated farm land from pesticides, fossil water and petro-fertilizers

Release our domestic animals from the ongoing holocaust their ignoble corporate masters perfected

Re-measure progress by the sustainable wild salmon harvest not by how many bloated SUVs they sold

Turn away from cynically smirking leaders reading with false twangs the speeches that others wrote

Suffocate them gently with soft pillows stuffed full of fluffy peace and love

Demonstrate that you understand them and then force them to listen to you for a change

Leave them squawking in meaningless, impotent rage - and then go post the video

Tax the living shit out of them in the name of those they have outsourced and displaced

Turn quietly aside and relegate them to a small but shrilly-whining margin

Don’t forget all their lessons and don’t let them back in power, ever again

Keep them aware of their results 24x7, wherever they choose to travel

Redistribute their pirated assets for schools, clinics, infrastructure and reclamation projects

Put them to work on chicken farms, in feedlots and bent painfully over in the onion fields

Convert some of their crumbling so-called trophy homes into museums of unvarnished greed

Preserve and combine names, dates and deeds into a twisted but cohesive history

Answer their last bailout pleas with empathetic offers of work at cleaning urban ERs

Busy their marketing and advertising geniuses promoting peaceful cooperation

Thoroughly safety test their adulterated, imported products on them, their families and their pets

Pester them with swindled widows, forgotten children, the uninsured and outsourced workers

Study their bios that their likes are prevented from ever again rising to power

Find ways to treat their greedy, monomaniacal, need to ignorant power with mercy

Set them savagely against each other in inconsequential and harmless competitions

Marginalize their greedy squeals for they led us to waste too much, for far too long

Step Up And Respin Ourselves

ditch the profitable fiction that war is simply a matter of our own unchangeable genetics

quit going forth and multiplying dumbly and decrease our numbers to a sustainable level

put aside our mindless, noisy, smoking toys and simply ponder the wind in the trees for a moment

forsake shortsighted smash and grab profit for a 1000 year economy and a thoughtful culture

dump the devastating myth that only we were born with a soul in the image of our fantasy gods

remeasure our success by what remains for our those who perchance might follow us

respin our myths and make it our responsibility to pass on an intact web of life

realize that there are neither jobs nor money without an ecosystem to support them

abolish the sinful suffering we criminally inflict upon our domesticated brothers…

understand well their sacrifices and at least consume them with some recognition

integrate our brilliant but incomplete economic system into the natural world that supports it

abandon outdated notions that clean air and water are merely so-called free goods

quit ignoring our toxic byproducts, dead bycatch and long-lasting side effects

stop believing that a giant shoddily-built house is the ultimate in status and luxury

stay under the radar instead of trying to buy people’s attention on 28% interest credit cards

pay a deposit on that packaging and make manufacturers take back wornout goods

for god’s sake, save fossil fuels and subsidize solar, wind and thorium reactors

get our dumbass noses out of the middle east by getting off of their petroleum

stop wasting more than all the other nations combined on our so-called dEfense

don’t bother building 500 horsepower hydrogen vehicles that fall apart in 3 years

let’s not make things clean and efficient merely to support another 3 billion in poverty

forget about interstellar travel until we right this little space capsule called earth

tax the fossil fuel emission costs they have so successfully and so improperly externalized

stop rewarding uncontrollable greed, blind ambition and absolute egocentrism

end huge bonuses for exporting jobs and pollution to slave-based economies

just quit letting it all come down to money in the end - every single goddamn time

reverse bad decisions even if they were made in private talks with one’s personal savior

just set the example for a greener world instead of whining about what others should do

tax the fat and the lazy just like the smokers, the drinkers and the gamblers

understand: you ain’t bustin out of this pigsty and flyin off to some half-baked heaven

realize that they’ll never compete to provide healthcare for the poor or the sick

just accept that there really aint a market-based solution to every single problem

treat keeping quiet as a virtue instead of generating noise with everything we do

tax all of the franchised religions at corporate rates to fund forgotten social programs

kick back at the credit moneychangers and stone the payday usurers into a docile submission

stop believing in fairytale eternal compound growth and embrace a sustainable steady state future
