This house is on fire, esquires, sires quiet
It's like Juvenal's satires attired in the cries of Jeremiah
We need a Pussy Riot with no bias
Inspired by the Diet like in Opobo's Jaya
Delusions of grandeur transpire in the guise of cultured hires
The good book say it's dire, learned and lay, the wheel gyres
Woe to the shepherds who are destroying and scattering the sheep
Indulging in a deep, inequity that can't sleep
Flattering pictures of pastures that's evergreen
Painted by scriptures of pastors unclean
While many go astray today, lost the way
And some don't care whether it's night or day
Some say there's good intention as they mention the pretention
Mockeries of Mackabees by wanabees condescension
It gives me indigestion, and I'm not even the worst
There are those in this nation who can't pay for food, the cost
I react in beat like phosphorus, citing Yeats and Horace
The center can't hold, it's like we're lost in a forest
With neither compass nor direction, free and fair pompous elections
Won't give us the corrections we need to steer this nation to our station
The depth of depravity, stronger than gravity
We need escape velocity from this deep dental cavity of steep mental poverty
Some say he is a Moses, all we get is poses
And party politics, division like the war of roses
Is the race to the swift and the battle to the strong?
Without regard to right or wrong?
Power drunk princes punk norms it evinces
Shower funk dunces rank forms in provinces
While tribes of scribes are practising self censorship
A few won't take the bribe to join the death membership
It's a tricky situation, who's to say they would be okay?
Somebody's gotta shine the light and lead the way
The Ministry of Truth miseducating the youth
With tales uncouth and distortions that's brute
It's autocratic not Socratic, Magellan circlyc
Oxymoron, toxic colon, needs Hegelian didactic
Hardly a soul in sight to fight the might tonight
There'd be a hole, alright, blown like dynamyte
Napoleon's flair, dancing like Astaire
While whispering sweet falsettos that "I care"
The pleasure I treasure is being destroyed beyond measure
The pressure, can't be calmed by bulletins of Jacob Tesha
Who's gonna test the weight, with bullets as the reward?
And if they all sit and wait, with tulips are they cowards?
Our family is supposedly a strong institution
How did we end up with this prostitution?
Worse yet, where's the absolution and solution
Where's the panacea of inclusion to rid us of this pollution?
Switch from this Westminster Westphalian state?
Ditch all things West, and rest in Rastafarian gates?
With the wisdom of Selassie, turn classic, fantastic
Is that even real, or just another fantasy that's cruel and quixotic, sarcastic?
Have the sands of time shifted so much beneath our feet
That the stands I chime are lifted in such a defeat?
Has this river meandered too much to lose a name?
Are the shivers in my liver rendered too much for what remains?
The second law of thermodynamics dictates world trade
Isolationism forbade, puritanism put to bed
Darwinian swim or sink, with hardly a wink
Determining datamining, with hardly a blink
Bolshevik Menshevik splits the bones at the pelvis
While prima donna spits like evil Elvis
Malfunctioning magnanimity,ignoble divinity
With a dashing shot of doubly deadly salinity
The lips of the wise go discerning in their diction
The blips of oversized ego's ambition are frantic in their addiction
For tragicomic of the commons, religiously like Mormons
Driven by ignorance thats fired by the greed hormone
This Mariana Trench is neither British nor French
Our very own stench from all these years we've been drenched
In propaganda with no candor, hurt us more than the war with Uganda
The poisonous infection needs a quick amputation
Or else the cancerous ramification will spread over the body of the nation
Who is the doctor with the right intention to usher the generations?
This house is on fire and we fired the fireman
A clown we then hired cause we're tired of the sire man
And now we sing the choir that the attire is esquire man
The nakedness acquired is a dire we desire man
The chief of mischie with Caligula-Nero yokes
With a speech you can't impeach, tarantula neo-jokes
With clear opacity for the masses of lasses
And sheer beer veracity for the middle classes
Midwives of horror meets contractors of sorrow
To dupe the boroughs better than George Soros
With asinine shots of quinine, worse than Idi Amin
Orwellian dwelling, flairing the failing
While all the while derailing, the chief we're hailing
Caesar must die, but beware of the jailing
