Confidence In Kindness

Stay inside
Got to hide

from the tranny granny neo-nazi wacky-backy blackies
and the hashtag black-ops cranks
the bitcoin revolution yanks
the anti-vaccers bovva-booters
scrolling on their soul computers

It's a scary world, there's always
someone out to get you
Philosophy, hasn't been this
life-or-death since Socrates

The foolish used to rant to friends
but now they join the mob
and the politicians side with them
democracy is popularity

Got to get your
prayers on track

now the Spanish Inquisition's back and you are on the rack
prodding you with witty pokers
a planet full of Batman Jokers
twisting your unwoken mindless
crude philosophy of kindness

It's a scary world, there's always
someone out to beat ya.
What doesn't kill you sometimes
makes you weaker, Nietzsche.

the fatty catty robo-bitches
burn the books now not the witches

there's nothing left to do
quaff some hemlock with your brew
duck and cover
but be a lover
have confidence in the kindness of the world
