The Corporation is the State

 

A cozy chatty little scene:

Our Leader and this guy

they talk and laugh as though they were

on a lovers high.

 

The Corporation is the State,

The State, the Corporation

A doubled warp that’s woven through

the fabric of the nation.

 

The natural world can go to hell;

The poor can starve and die

they do their deal today, and they

are on a lovers high.

 

The Corporation is the State,

The State, the Corporation

A doubled warp that’s woven through

the fabric of the nation.
