ENERGY

Energy unleashed

touching those in its path

energizing a generation

to mobilize and organize

themselves against

war/poverty/fascism

taking the streets

while plumbers, deceivers

committed crimes against humanity

to maintain control

over other peoples' resources

silence out-spoken voices with assassin's bullets

the assassins

the fbi, red squads, paid informer

any kind of informer

to take the stand against those

who took a stand

in the land of the free

free coupons with every purchase

of the american dream

a nightmare scream

for those caught up in ghetto webs

while society moves toward the next century

the fascist pigs are

at it again

offering electric couches

for mass execution

the thought that someone

said that is shocking

will it shock us and jump-start

that dormant energy into action

or will we stand by

for the next announcement

see the next execution on cable

for as little as $1 a month

energy to short out the circuit

or we can just pull the plug!
