Upside Down World
The world is upside down.
And I must hold on
The sky is shit brown
As bold women frown.
We’ve been dealt a bad hand.
The rationale has fled.
The world is upside down.
And GOD has gone to bed.
You can’t flush me loose.
Flush me loose.
Flush me loose.
Who gets the prize
For best disguise
Able to sleep
Inhale the lies.
The creep is King
His smile was so stunning
With sleight of hand
He mocks the cunning.
On Roe v Wade
Our Judges vote anew
For Equal Rights
Belie their view.
You won’t shoot us loose.
Shoot us loose. Shoot us loose.
The World is Upside Down. Do hold on.
Though all that’s flushed spins like a pawn
Dousing the past, our enslaved sex pressing
to supplant the Grail, Choose our own sacred blessing.
You can’t jerk us loose.
Jerk us loose, Jerk us loose.
The mirror is cracked.
The weight is clear.
We’ll need to survive.
Make it through this year.
March against the madness.
Push back the fear.
The world is upside down.
And we still hold on.
Don’t even try. To sway us loose.
Sway us loose. Sway us loose.
