Built-in Obsolescence

the gears are grinding
the smoke is rising
the new model is ready to go
the landfill site
gets a new cover tonight
the old model is ready to go
run to your bank
take out that loan
our profits are ready to grow
buy / discard
don't bother with a warranty
all the shit you buy
in an attempt to hide
the omnipresence
of your own built-in obsolescence
distract yourself
with things you will outlive
it will keep the fear at bay
work - buy - consume - die
the hellish cycle is complete
workers
buyers
products
vendors
all just built to break
but the company lives on

Red Herring
03:27

you cast your line
and hope for the best
in hungry times
you eat what you get
and before you know it
they start to bite
don't get dragged into the water
put up a fight
now your mind is set
you stare at the float
you get your feet wet
there's water in the boat
try and try to reel it in
guess what?
guess who's hooked now?
wake up, skipper
you've caught a kipper
a red herring's easily caught but
the fishy smell might tip you off
if it doesn't fit
with the narrative
don't get off track
throw that fucker back
there may not be
that many fish in the sea
before you sink your teeth
look at what's underneath
try and try to reel it in
throw that fucker

Argumentum Ad Metum

I see your headlines every day
they speak of horrors far and near
your question marks long thrown away,
nothing sells as well as fear
your wanton wording
your callous claims
the fallacy is oh-so clear
it's all an appeal to fear
I heard you during your campaign
you spoke of threats at hand and great
you know just where to point the blame
nothing gets more votes than hate
your wanton wording
your callous claims
the fallacy is oh-so clear
it's all an appeal to fear
and your clergymen
in their embellished robes
put the fear of god in man
in the guise of hope
-don't give in to fearit
does not appeal to me
