Ethics Morality And Truth

Are

The first three things

Thrown out of the

Economic window

Of ivory towers

Guarded by the wolf

In wolf’s clothing

While

The sheep bleet nonsense

In a dull rhythmic hum

Drifting in like a

Soft hallelujah chorus

Mixed in with the
,
Clinking of counted coins

The lilt of laughter

Suffocating the stench

Of greed and corruption

.
The above triggered the below

Perchance ivory towers mentioned

Or vice-versa impossible sequencing

When everything is happening at once

.

 

“Be Quick Or Be Dead”

“Covered in sinners and
Dripping with guilt
Making your money
From slime and from filth

Parading your bellies
in ivory towers
Investing our lives in
Your schemes and your powers

You got to watch them
 – be quick or be dead
Snake eyes in heaven
 – the thief’s in your head

//

See… what’s ruling all our lives
See… who’s pulling the strings…

I bet you won’t fall on your face
Your belly will hold you in place

The serpent is crawling
Inside of your ear
He says you must vote for
what you want to hear

Don’t matter what’s wrong
As long as you’re alright
So pull yourself stupid and
Rob yourself blind

You got to watch them
 – be quick or be dead
Snake eyes in heaven
 – the thief’s in your head

//

Be quick… or be dead!
Be quick!”

– Iron Maiden
