Old hat

 

 

It's the end of the world as we know it...

Thank fuck for that!

Because in my book

this world had become a bit old hat.

Being run down by old white men.

It seems we have forgotten

what it means to be human.

 

We worship money.

Isn't it so funny

how seeing such fame and celebrity

make us feel so lonely.

Make us feel like we don't belong

that we don’t deserve as much as them. It’s wrong.

We bow down at those that are seen on TV.

Take every word they preach as gospel.

Everything they say

as if it means more than you or me.

 

We pray to the gods of media.

Netflix and kill.

Chill, bite down on the blue pill

and just forget about life's ills.

Let's watch a documentary about blood spilled.

Watch as they start wars,

Sky will soon start to report,

BBC will air the government retort

and the people will follow 

like these preachers are giving out truths.

 

Got us hooked up on social media life support,

drip feeding lies to get us to conform

like performing monkeys

it will become the norm.

Drip. Drip. Drip.

They keep on feeding just for the thrill,

until we are gorged on the shit they spill.

 

The old ways need changing,

they don't really work.

There need to be tweaks

to get this old place turning.

Let's get rid of the newspapers

and the bile they are churning.

We need to start embracing

rather than burning.

Every civilisation falls

and ours is collapsing around the walls.
