Living each moment
Like the bomb’s about to go
And they live each moment
Making the bombs
It’s ironic to watch
Swerving and screeching on highways and screaming
They put their phones to their ears
And swat at their kids
And say asinine things like
“Wait until you have a few kids
And then you’ll understand.”
When already
I understand more than they do
In this shallow yuppie-ville
The dead will be lucky
In this crop of opulent madness
Remember
The nuclear option
Is still on the table
And remember
When they come for you
You watched them build the bombs
And remember
When they come for you
You were warned
And remember
When they come for you
To try and not make too much noise
After all there is a noise ordinance
And remember
When they come for you
You lived ever moment
Under the bomb
Where is your courage?
