This is a spoof on Simon & Garfunkel's song "Sounds of Silence". It's written mainly by a Marketwatch poster " Filthy Beast" with some additions by yours truly. from Marketwatch[/color] Fools said I you do not know, The unemployment cancer grows. People spending with---out earning, Income shrinking with---out working. And the lies of the bulls were written on the subway walls, And outhouse stalls, And none dared use the word-- UnemploymentAnd the people bowed and prayed To the printing press they made And the press flashed out No Warning In the Garbage that it was printing And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls And tenement halls" And whispered in the sounds of Inflation.And at the cap-i-tol I saw, Five Hundred liars maybe more. Laws a-written by mis-creants. for campaign donor re-cipients And the words of the privileged are written in Congress halls And boardroom calls. And none dare use the word--- Corporatism.
And the Plutocrats they prayed, To the Congressmen they paid. And the signs flashed out its warning, Democracy and its sub-borning. And the wishes of constituents never make it to Congress halls, only outhouse stalls. And none dare use the word-- Corporatism.[/font][/b][/ul]

Nothing has changed since I first posted this.
Except for Obama's declaration that he can "legally" murder US citizens via drone attacks, and that the 4th Amendment is, again, just another g**-d*** piece of paper.

I'm working on another version of the Sounds of Silence, with new words to describe our current Police State.
And the People were betrayed, By unjust laws Congress made, And the sign flashed out its warning, the Constitution now undermining, And the sign says the words of the profits are written on prison walls, By Detainees all, And none dare use the term, of Police State.
Now the People wondered why, The Justice system went awry, Charges filed with-out offense, Bankrupting innocents for defense, DAs filing charges, that no one comprehends, but need defense, but none dare use the term of Police State.
And the innocents detained, Down at Gitmo they remained, And the sign flashed out its warning, the Constitution and its undermining, And the words of detainees are ignored in prison halls, and torture stalls "I did nothing wrong" "I'm innocent."
Interrogators not dismayed, by new enemies they just made, ----------------------- ----------------------- ----------------------- ----------------------- ----------------------- -----------------------
The naked people that I saw, Detainees chained down to the floor, ----------------------- ----------------------- ----------------------- ----------------------- ----------------------- -----------------------
