We manage you, so you don't have to.

Look over there
(is that a hand
in your pocket?)

Look over there
(is that a hand
in your pocket?)

We will do
what we
want
any time.

Is that a crime?

You elected us.
Is that a crime?

Uh-oh!
Uh-oh!
Here's a distraction.
Don't you all
want
a piece
of the action?

That's what you told me.
(That's what I told
you to say.)

Jump when I say.
Freeze when I say.
You'll get what you want
and we'll vent your voice

to certain forums,
and you'll
all
be living
with such decorum;

all alone
in quiet rooms,
blue
with glare:

we'll be there
in the corner: 
a pair of eyes;

it's no surprise -
you put us there.

Is that a hand in your pocket?
Do you think
your Constitution
will stop it?

We'll get what we want
any time.

The Supreme Court
put us here
(is that a crime?)

Yes:
but you'll
never know.

You
will 
fall
through 
holes
in the system.
