Ain'T It Funny Poem by Steven Taylor

Ain'T It Funny



ain't it funny how the price of gas
does our attention pull, ...
last week a sawbuck was a joke
today it filled tanks quarter full

think deeply about how you feel
as the price of gas recedes
and the precious dollars you will have
to spend on other things you need

the smile and sense of pure relief
felt as you purchase fuel
is a form of propaganda that
bush and his boys use as a tool

think twice as deep y'all, .. I implore, ..
of the covert mind control
our fascist, nazi government
has on your body, mind and soul

4 hundred billion dollars of
the saleries we earn
is being spent on needless wars
so rich white men have cash to burm

the profits made on products like
destoyers, bombs and tanks,
pay for the lavish life styles of
rich racist crakahs with swiss banks

ain't it funny how the price of gas
does our attention pull, ...
last week a sawbuck was a joke
today it filled tanks quarter full
