LABELS
That's right, there are no leftists here
they've left to make things right
but first they drank up all the beer
and all the wine in sight
The right wingers all fell from the sky
at least the few still left
they fell with a joyful cry
their perfect smiles all cleft
Progressive, they all shifted gears
and went into reverse
while ridiculing brave men's fears
in long speeches which were terse
Which left the Luddites breaking ground
with new technology
making them laugh each time they frowned
in perfect synchronousity
The socialist sits all alone
he shuns all company
all he does is piss and moan
about his lost destiny
the anarchists all formed a club
in a quest for forming order
they all agreed that the real rub
is forming a country with no border
Of course the communists agree
they're better than the rest
you'd think the only truth they see
is found by beating their scrawny chests
i guess that leaves just you and me
to remain unlabeled
for now I'll gladly agree
to leave that motion tabled
Just some nonsense
