We shoot horses for less

Religions make claims of peace while wading in the blood of others,

Saying theirs is the word and law of the sky man, who isn’t the other sky man.

They never talk about how the sky men all have similar names-that’s heresy, punishable by death.

Politicians claim to work for the people, their pockets fat with corporate money,

Their futures and security more certain with every law they make for their true masters.

Never mind those who vote starving, dying of preventable diseases-they’re probably fake, or foreign agents.

Now, people say we should obey these charlatans,

Listen to their every word, believe their every lie. We should never fight these sick men.

Even though we shoot horses for less.

We shoot horses for less.

We shoot fucking horses for less
