Feed them excitement as they
blink
Who cares if there’s
austerity just get on with the show
Sochi-wash the masses, let
the BS grow
The “news makers” are here,
and up for the “games”
Let’s all clap and cheer the
Olympic flame
The elites are all here, it’s
time to party
Just keep feeding the masses
more marketed malarkey
Games and more games to cheer
the serfs
As they watch the spectacles
from around the earth
Meanwhile children are dying
in endless wars
Financed and promoted by the
war games curs
“Bread and Circuses” are
still in the “modern age”
“And Ancient Rome is back”
says a worthy sage
Do modern day Nero’s and
Caligula’s rule?
“Don’t be silly,” says a
grovelling political fool
“The masses love to be taxed
and entertained”
The next games extravaganza
has already been named
Wars, austerity and games and
more games
Are good diversions as are
Olympic flames
The rulers of the World are
in control
The people everywhere have a
role
They are taxed to the max and
pay and pay
Sochi-washing the masses is
the flavour of the day
