mario william vitale - take the lump sum lyrics

Loading...

how a bill becomes law
democratic process, that’s how it goes
more like pimps puttin’ out cigarettes
on their hapless ho’s

if you don’t vote, don’t complain about the result
you have heard, no doubt, that jive–ss insult
think you got more choice than pepsi versus c-ke?
then p-ss me that pipe, ‘cuz i too want a toke

maybe i can just drink my way out of this mess
got my freedom of choice, where more equals less
pilsner, ale, lager, stout, by all means take your pick
cooler door’s open, better grab somethin’ quick

how a crispy stack of bills becomes law
corporate lobbyist shills, they write every word
then it goes to committee
puppet show of the absurd

they feed you scorn flakes by the heapin’ bowl
fixin’ to microchip you and short sell your soul
judas goats lead the sheeple down the path to mutton
they can bleat all they want, but that won’t do nothin’

i elect two tall boys and appoint a sad–ss sack of doritos
magazine headline pushin’ vaccines in mosquitoes
they gonna mainline you with junk, if you like it or not
i slap a sweaty twenty on the counter, cuz that’s all i got

how a hundred-dollar bill becomes law
without ever bein’ read, it goes to a vote
gets ramrodded through the house
by some bought ‘n’ paid-for turncoat

what’s one more sellout, another big lie?
small price to pay for the best system money can buy
kickbacks for politicians handed off in the park
blown on five-grand hookers turnin’ tricks in the dark

i see the jackpot’s over two hundred million again
to not take a chance would be a jack-ss sin
all you need is a little bit of luck, says the cgi midget
so i circle five numbers, plus a powerball digit

how swill becomes law
at last, it gets signed or vetoed
if it don’t serve its paymasters
it’s long since been torpedoed

dollar and a dream, keep clutchin’ that ticket
forget the long odds, math’s a real sticky wicket
if i win it all, i’m gonna take the lump sum
go lie on the beach, sippin’ daiquiris and rum

i whisk my gewgaws back up to my apt
crack a cold one, watch the news, my attention quite rapt
flickerin’ pixels put the rgb hex on me
alpha-state so soothin’ that i finally can see

disregard what i was sayin’, so bitter and snide
talkin’ head pundits set my paranoid delusions aside
quiet on the set–stop shovellin’ chips in your maw
some sexed-up strumpet’s splainin’ me…
…how a bill becomes law
