Smile your vacuous smile and continue
feeding on the waste ’cause they say all is well
Take another spoon, nourish the nescience
sip insipid imbecility ’cause they tell
Resume the dull chomping on viscous lies
believe in ignorance and gulp what they sell
Take another stale serving of spoon-fed thoughts
and simper in cushy complacency with your festering shell
Why burden the head with cerebration, just obey
keep adapting bought verity and pay.
Consume advertised truth –
or awake.
