the chorus is deafening because nobody listened the voices were advertisements soulless billboards warding consumers into cattle cars with beauty no prods needed people cordone quite naturally obedient to music above all other commands or more coercive attempts imploring everyone to follow a leader that doesn't remain the same person year after year always someone else telling use what to do with our mind and the little bit of excess money left over after caring for providing for ourself and loved ones two threes however many we take care of and support buy things for whatever it is the shifting masks of authority are never welcome in the taverns on the factory floors of any century no board rooms ivory tower intellectuals all rapunzels we are cursed to weave gold from our very nature hairy unmanicured kept away from quarantined by greed brainwashed by mediated experience when all anyone wants is to be free from the trappings of cultural burdens expectations infinite wealth all beach vacation mountain top resorts perfect bodies all desires satisfied met mated matured into slower versions of ourself the better possible part of this world that we could be if nobody had to work or eat or be isolated poorly behaved all things are understandable and beautiful if we think about them hard enough they can be fixed but results may vary because the world follows its own arse in circles around the sun
