2007-08-22 - the self willed heir

all of the ways love leads
none of the ways hate would
reaching to meet the needs
sure could do some good

but by the beating of those drums
something wicked this way comes

they bark like a cocky spaniel
press flesh like Pappy O'Daniel
percussions of rhythyms astray
pompous and bloated are they

presumption's the word of the day
for the natives of Havitchurway

they've slaughtered and eaten the prophets
whose shrunken heads swing from their soffits
they're drunk on the blood of the weak
and boast of great things when they speak
their heroes are those who align
with the idols of selfish design
bowing before their own will
uniting in cause to fulfill
their hidden agenda to make you surrender your soul to the empire they build

say a prayer for the heir, self-willed,

to dispair for the innocent killed
for the poor whom they've crushed
in the press they bum-rushed
and usurped by their treacherous greed

say a prayer for the children in need

all the ways love leads
none of the ways hate would
reaching to meet the needs
sure could do some good

love is the only right way
and "God is love" as they say
so remember this when'er you pray
a hatred for hatred's ok
