A Full Belly Production

lyrics

Oh! Blindness of the "great"
across our broken backs, they walk like gods.
sure of hired fists
trusting in their power, which has already lasted so long.
but "long" is not forever
Oh! Fuse of Brutal Truth to the PEOPLE

Walk, your highness
(even now with your head up),
from your palace.
The eyes of all your Foes on you.
you no longer need an architect.
a Gravedigger will do.

You will not be moving in to a new palace, but, rather,
A Hole in the Ground.

Look around you one last time, Blind Man.
Does all you once possessed still please you?
between inaugurations, you've been walking to that place from which the rich and the Poor alike to not return.

...when the houses of the "great" collapse, those inside are slain en masse.

he'd never share his fortune with the poor, but now they're sure to share his fate when the plunging wain drags his sweating beasts of burden with him into this abyss.
