Ruled To Ruler

 

The bloody ferris wheel

Keeps going round

From ruled to ruler

Ruler to ruled,

Around the globe

It doesn`t matter,

Even us in our complacency

So secure in our illusion

Of democracy,

Forget that Toronto`s

G20 in two thousand ten,

Accompanied by unannounced

Marshall law,

In context was

One of the most repressive

Crackdowns in Canadian History,

All rights suspended

So some could pose in a

Billion dollar party,

How much political crap

Can be swept under the carpet

Before we wonder where

The shitty smell is coming from,

Where is the greasy guy smoking

Pot who pulls the brake lever.
