Sandcastles

lyrics:

Il hold my nose tight as I wade
Through this mess that we’ve made
And chase my tail, fetch the mail
And lie down all day in the shade

Why did we acquiesce
Content with having less
We are all to blame
All Complicit in this mess

Rich and poor divide
The Gap is Growing wide
We skipped into the slaughter house
It’s the way it was designed

Please Mind the gap
They’ve got us in a trap
Packed into the tube
Sitting on our masters lap

Life inside the Test tube
Satisfied with pet food
Life behind the glass
Through lenses closely we’re viewed

Chorus
Il hold my nose tight as I wade
Through this mess that we’ve made
And chase my tail, fetch the mail
And lie down all day in the shade

Head in the sand buried feet first
Bound by the hands fully Submersed
Choking on sand Dying of thirst
Lead by the hand I was coerced

Verse
The richest one percent
They Own most of the wealth
But who cares as long as I’ve got
enough for myself

I get a bone a day
while the rich folk eat steak
But I still brag to the strays
about how much I make

Oh For goodness sake how
much does one man need
I think as I Wag my tail,
bring master my lead

Chorus
Il hold my nose tight as I wade
Through this mess that we’ve made
And chase my tail, fetch the mail
And lie down all day in the shade

Head in the sand buried feet first
Bound by the hands fully Submersed
Choking on sand Dying of thirst
Lead by the hand I was coerced

bridge
Head buried in their sand castles
Six feet under ground
Sinking sand has swallowed me up
Now I’m another loyal hound

Head buried in their sand castles
Six feet under ground
If I slip out of this sandy grave
I’ll end up at the pound

Verse
The rich get richer
And the poor get poorer
painful picture
Migraine Aura

War on wages Waging war
Nothing changes raging poor
Buy our own cages lock our own door
Gulp down our gruel and beg for more

Il hold my nose tight as I wade
Through this mess that we’ve made
And chase my tail, fetch the mail
And lie down all day in the shade
